Circa 1850 Heavy Body Paint & Varnish Remover removes old paint, varnish, shellac, lacquer and urethane - even multiple coats. Its gel formula makes it ideal for exterior use and vertical surfaces. Because it contains no water or harsh chemicals it is safe to use on fine furniture. It will not disturb the wood's natural patina or raise the grain, and it will not harm glue joints or veneers. Circa 1850 Heavy Body Paint & Varnish Remover is non-flammable and almost odorless. Made by Swing Paints.
Bought it for verticle hull surfaces and bottom, also purchased Aqua Strip and 1850 was no match for Aqua Strip. Aqua Strip can be reactivated with water in a spray bottle and continues to strip until it is scrapped off.
