Questions & Answers about Aqua Strip Paint Stripper:
2012-11-07A shopper asked: will this product work on automotive type paint on metal?
+Expand Answers
2012-11-07Nathan Fournier: Because of the several coats of clear-coat on cars, it won't penetrate properly, the only thing it will do is soften it up a little, so no. However we do sell "BTN-US01" which is the "Ultra Stripper" version from the same company, which remove's lacquer's and urethane's from metals and other substrates. Make sure you brush on a nice thick coating, let it sit for several hours, and keep the stripper moist, thank you.

2012-05-23JERRY COOK asked: I have an 18th century brass bed someone painted black. I am not sure what kind of paint was used, it appears to be just one coat of an enamel base paint. My question is, will the Aquastrip ACB damage the brass?
+Expand Answers
2012-05-23ROGER DEMLER: Should be ok on brass. I would clean it well with soap and water afterwards. I used it on bronze thruhulls while trying to strip bottom paint. I don't know what you should use after that to keep the brass from tarnishing, maybe varnish.
2012-05-23ANTHONY J DEROSA: I have used Aqua Strip to remove paint from wooden boats and had excelent results. I am not an expert with metal but the bronze screws and ringshankl nail in the boat were not affected by the Aqua Strip. I would not hesitate to use it on the brass. As always do a test on a small piece first and see what happens. Good luck.

2012-05-23GEORGE MAUPIN: I doubt it would hurt the brass. I have had the stripper get on bronze thru-hull fittings and it does not hurt them
2012-05-23PETER SLOCUM: I have not tried it and would certainly recommend testing it on some other brass object first. Don't know what kind of surface you're going to have after removing paint. It may not be so good hence the paint. You may want to speak with a plating company. They would strip everything and replate. They could also tell you what chemical would be bad for the antique finish. This stuff is pretty gentle to skin compared with other stuff. It normally takes a cyanide bath to strip metal plated parts so I think your paint would fall right off before any damage happens to the brass.
2012-05-23MICHAEL ELLIS: In a short "No" it will not hurt brass just follow the directions and all should be fine!
2012-05-24MICHAEL ELLIS: In a short "No" it will not hurt brass just follow the directions.

2012-02-15A shopper asked: How will this stripper affect bedding compounds and sealants used with thru-hulls and keel attachment? Will it affect Marelon thru-hull fittings?
+Expand Answers
2012-02-15PETER SLOCUM: I don't know how it will affect your specific bedding compound. I used it to remove bottom paint on a lapstrake hull with 5200 between the laps. the paint removed and the 5200 stayed in place. I would test it first on separate fittings or call the bedding compound manufacturer. I used Aqua Strip Marine which is one step stronger than regular aqua strip.
2012-02-15PAUL TULLOS: i used the stripper on an aluminum, centerboard boat w/ welded thru-hulls. so i really don't know. sorry.
2012-02-15BARRY MCKENZIE: I used this product to remove a thick coating of old bottom paint on a 23' fiberglass Bayliner and found it to be easy to use and effective on 95% of the old stuff. Never noticed any problems other than it will dry rather quickly on a warm Arizona day !
2012-02-15MICHAEL ELLIS: I had no problems with this product attacking anything other than the paint surface that I wanted removed. It did not bother any thru-hull fittings that I have on my sailboat. This product was easy to use and did not have any bad odors as it worked off the bottom paint. It did require some minor mechanical work to finish the hull clean up and surface prep. Wonderful stuff.
2012-02-17JIM JANKUN: I'd replace any sealant it comes in contact with.it's best with a razor blade scaper.it doesn't work as good as the video I watched on the website,good luck
2012-01-23ROBERT MANSFIELD asked: I want to remove many coats of bottom paint from my fiberglass 25 ft. sailboat. how much do I need? Will it remove the barrier coat that is under the bottom paint? Will it work at 50 degrees?
+Expand Answers
2012-01-24JEFFREY SMITH: I had about 3 coats of old bottom paint on my boat when I used Aqua Stripper. In some areas I did have to re-apply but for the most part I put a thick coat on and waited about an hour. Key was doing it out of the sunlight. As the day went on, I noticed when I was applyiing it in the sunlight it would dry faster and not really penetrate the bottom paint. And I did it in the spring and temps were around 50 degrees or higher.
Last the company recommends using a plastic scraper. Plastic scraper worked not so well. What I did was get a metal scraper and I dulled the corner edges of it so as not to gouge the bottom of the boat. That worked many times better than a plastic scraper.
Last wear a tyvac suit, fully sealed eye goggles and hat, you're gonna get messy.
2012-01-24THOMAS ELLIS: I tried this as a cheaper alternative to soda blasting. It didn't work for me. I have a 32 foot sailboat with many built up layers. I tested it several times and what it removed was worthless. I was using it at a much warmer temp than 50 degrees to. I ended up throwing at least half a can of this away. Maybe it would work in a different application, but with many years of built up paint.......no way.
2012-01-24CHARLES PIPER: Robert, we did not use Aqua Strip to remove bottom paint so we can't answer any questions in that area. We did use it to strip the teak on our sailboat and it worked quite well. It was easy and did a good job and would buy it again for that purpose.
Charlie
2012-01-24JEAN-PAUL FELIX: A dirty, messy job however you look at it. It's very hard work and depending on how many layers there are, it will take 1 to x applications.
Toxicity wise, this is probably the safest way to remove bottom paint.
To do the job most efficiently you need good access at a good working height, crawling under a trailer adds significant time, effort and pain.
Temperature wise, the application needs to stay damp to work. Don't know about 50 degrees, it might be inert at that temperature. My problem was environment was too hot.
Bottom line is the stuff shifts eveything down to the FG without damaging the FG.
If you're young and physically fit, why not? Having tried it, I have turned my sights on soda-blasting as an easier alternative. I haven't tried it though but the costs could easily justify the savings in physical torment.
2012-01-24ANTHONY MITCHELL: I stripped hull paint (one good coat) down to the gelcoat from a 19" center console and it took every bit of a gallon. At 25ft and with multiple coats I'd start at 2 gallons but it could be double that. If the barrier coat is paint then its probably coming off too- down to the wood,metal,glass what have you. The trick I found was to apply it as thick as possible and let it sit as long as possible. When it turns colors on you yet is still a little damp, seemed to be the easiest time to scrape. Heat, humidity, and wind play a big part. If it's windy don't bother- It drys before it does anything. I tried plastic wrap over it in these conditions with mixed results to say the least. I did my job in mid may at probably 75 degrees. I am not sure if 50 is warm enough to thoroughly activate the stripper. Any chance of moving it indoors. Watch the ventalation though the vapors can be harsh. Good luck
2012-01-30CAMERON STUART: I used this product to remove multiple layers of bottom paint from my 25 Bertram. The key lesson I learned was to ensure the product stayed wet. Once it dries it stops working. Since I did the work outside, in summer, I had to work with small sections at a time. I taped off an area of the hull, applied the product (as much as possble), and then covered the area with plastic sheeting to prevent evaporation. I let it sit for a day before removing the plastic. This technique removed all layers - down to the gelcoat. I works, but it is a tedious, dirty job. I would never do this again. Instead, I would have the hull soda blasted.
2012-02-02JUNIOR AURICCHIO: Hi Robert. I used 1quart to remove the bottom paint on my 18f 99 Seadoo Sportster 1800 that a previous owner applied. You may have to use the strong one because you have many coats. Make sure that you apply a generous coat so the paint will pop loose. Good luck.

2012-02-09WILLIAM ARCHER: (Sorry it took so long to respond; mailbox problems)
It's very hard to say and very much depends on a lot of different factors. (Don't you just love answers like that?)
Figure on two applications per section. I just did a Hunter 260 with 8 or 10 coats of paint on it and despite my best efforts and some tricks I've learned along the way it still always took two tries to get it all.
I would guess the type of paint would make a difference, but probably not that much. That much paint is a lot to ask.
Anyway, a few things:
PAY ATTENTION TO THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE.
The instructions say that it works best between 60 & 80 degrees F. I would add that, outside of those temperatures it barely works at all.
Second: plan on leaving it on for 24 hours.
Third: Slop it on very thick. Don't think of it as "painting" it on; rather, think of it as "smearing" as thick a layer as you can. The thicker it is the better it works.
Fourth: Cover it up while it's curing. I tape on thin, cheap, flimsy plastic drop cloths and/or strips of plastic wrap. Otherwise, it dries out and you can't get it off. Keep it wet. Repeat 10 times.
Fifth: Go get a couple of cheap (but sturdy) plastic ice scrapers (like for your car). I've gone through 20 "putty knife" type things and they just don't allow you to scrape. Metal paint scrapers are just too dangerous for me to try on fiberglass. Ice scrapers are just the thing.
Sixth: after the second application (or first if you've only got a couple layers to take off) there will still be some small sots of stuck on paint. Take one of those green kitchen scrubber things and those will come right off. Be sure and rinse the hull as you go.
In my experience it does not take off barrier coatings.
It's a lot of work but I've tried everything I know of that's on the market and this stuff works far better than anything else, in addition to not being caustic of stinky or, you know, kill you.
Wild guess: 3 five gallon cans.
Good luck
2011-12-27CHARLEY MAY asked: Has anyone tried it on woodwork? I want to refinish the inside woodwork that has one coat of shelack. Put on around 1915.
+Expand Answers
2011-12-28TRAVIS BAKER: We used this materail to remove not only the original 1923 shelack but also the 8-10 coats of paint on about 5400 lnft of woodwork on a large commercial remodel project. Give the materail time to work and it will do a good job for you.
2011-12-28PETER SLOCUM: It should work just fine for your project, I used the Marine version to remove bottom paint on a wood boat and it worked better than 4 other products we tried. I also used it to remove old varnish. Low odor is the best feature. Put it on thick per the instructions so it doesn't dry out. takes a while to work but it does work. Use a spray bottle with water to "re-wet" stuff that gets caught in the corners. Use a nylon brush like an old toothbrush, to remove remaining stripper. You have to remove all the residue or your new finish will re-activate the stripper.
2011-12-28DONALD BARTOLD: Charley, i used Aqua Strip on a 1956 Chris Craft transom and it stripped off varnish and copper bottom paint very well. I experienced no odor and washed residue off with a hose.
2011-12-29JOSEPH MATLAGA: Hi, I used it on paint without much luck. I am refinishing my interior using zip strip which works better than I thought it would. Interior was finished with varnish.
2011-12-29LAWRENCE CLARK: I used it to remove varnish on teak. Worked well, took a little more effort over its less-environmentally friendly competitors, but it DID work. Clean up was much easier, too.
2011-12-29MICHAEL ELLIS: I have used this product on the hull of my boat very succesfully and would recomend it to strip paint from just about anything. It stripped paint from my trailer (that was unintented) with ease as I did not cover it completely with plastic. Advise that what you want to keep undisturbed/stripped be moved away from or covered "COMPLETELY"away from the work being done. Thanks Aqua Strip for an outstanding product!
2011-12-31LINDSEY HORNER: Hi Charley-
The stripper works great though it takes longer than more aggressive, chemical strippers. spread it on liberally and be patient (maybe overnight). However, if I'm not mistaken, shellac no matter how old can be easily removed with alcohol. Might be worth a try on a small section.
good luck,

2011-07-31DOUGLAS DYER asked: has anyone used Aqua-strip on a Corvette?
+Expand Answers
2011-08-04PETER SLOCUM: I used Aqua Strip Marine which is a little stronger than aqua strip. I used it to remove anti-foul paint from a wood boat bottom. It works as advertised and better than the other strippers without all the smell. Follow the instructions.
It's made to take paint off of fiberglass. i don't see why it wouldn't work. Maybe try it on a scrap piece from a junk yard first
2011-08-05MICHAEL PARKER: Used it on a boat. Scary how well it worked. Don't wana know. Ate some of the trailer paint also - which was getting redone anyway.
2011-08-05IAN WILSON: Easy to use and quite effective, although like all strippers, can be messy. Would highly recommend.
2011-08-05BEDE MCCORMACK: I used Aquastrip on a boat and stripped away old enamel paint from a gel-coated surface. It worked great, but takes time (4-6 hours). I wet the surface with a spray bottle just before scraping the stripper/old paint off. It worked very well, though I did a second coat of Aquastrip as the paint was quite thick. It did not harm the gelcoat at all and I used it inside the boat cabin with no respirator/mask as it gives off no harmful fumes. I used a plywood board like an artists paint pallet when scraping off to collect the scrapings as I went along, much better than having the stripper/paint drop onto the cabin floor, etc. You must protect any areas you do not want affected- thin plastic drop cloths work fine. Great stuff I would use again, though not cheap.

OF COURSE it's "messy", people. It's a big bucket of chemical paint stripper. You slap it on thick and then scrape off layers of old paint. What did you expect? If you don't like "messy" then go pay the soulless clowns at your local boatyard $2000 to do it for you.
For everyone else, a review:
No, it does not quickly and easily remove 10 layers of bottom paint. I know because I've tried. But it works better than anything else I've used and I've tried a lot of them.
Still, I'm sure it depends on the paint or something. Beats me, not an expert.
And again, don't expect it to be quick and easy. It's not.
Some tips:
- Forget using some wimpy plastic paint scraper. Get yourself a thick, sturdy short-handled ice scraper for windshields.
- The makers say to use it between 60-80 degrees: believe them. Remember that this is a chemical reaction you're inducing here and - if you went to school back before it was transformed into group therapy for poster makers - you'll recall that temperature is an important element in any chemical reaction. If it's much over 80 degrees or much under 60 the stuff just doesn't work nearly as well.
- Yes, it dries out. Go get some really cheap, thin plastic dropcloth and when you're finished coating the boat, tape the stuff up over it, although usually it will just stick to it no problem. I've also used that Press & Seal plastic wrap stuff, which is good because you can do small areas and also uncover smaller areas at a time. Easier to use, too.
- If you've got many many layers, as I said, you'll probably need to re-coat, but even if you don't, when you get done scraping there's some residue. Take a big green kitchen scouring pad and lightly scrub the little sticky bits that haven't come off yet. Don't wait until later because it'll harden again. Do it while it's still soft. Comes right off.
- If you've got a layer of primer it probably won't come off with this, but a light sanding with 400 or 600 grit with water will ake that right up. Again, it's easier if you do it right away.
- If you use this with your boat on a trailer, make sure you cover any parts of the trailer that you don't want the paint removed from. Those big globs of old paint that you're scraping off still contain enough stripper to quickly mess up your trailer paint. Take it from someone who once ended up having to repaint a trailer.
- As several people mentioned, it can be a challenge to get it on thick enough, and it needs to be thick. Use a medium sized brush more or less like a spatula. Smear it on rather than brush like you would your walls.
- No two applications are the same. The first time you use it you'll go racing out after it's been on a couple of hours and be very disappointed when absolutely nothing comes up. I always plan for it to be on for 24 hours, and I've left it on as much as 48. As long as it's covered with plastic, it'll be fine.
Be realistic, plan ahead for the mess, and above all be patient and figure out what works best in your particular application. Yours wil not be the same as anyone else's.
All I can say is that it DOES work, it works better than anything else I've tried and I bet it will work for you too.

Comments about Back To Nature Aqua Strip Paint Stripper:
One has to apply a pretty generous paste to get the process going. Once applied and let sit for half an hour, scrape a little and mix with the rest of the application. It takes a bit of time though any stripper requires that.
I used this on a centerboard in my basement, though I'd generally recommend ventilation even though there are no noxious vapors.

Comments about Back To Nature Aqua Strip Paint Stripper:
I have tried Aqua Strip twice now to remove bottom paint from a Catalina 22 and now a Macgregor 26. It does take off layers of bottom paint and does not impact the gelcoat. However, my experience is that it only will remove one or two coats, not the up-to-10 coats advertised. It tends to dry out quickly and once dried is really hard to scrape off, even if you rejuvenate it with water. It is slow but that wouldn't bother me if it worked well. Was excited about this product when I ordered it due to it being environment friendly. Not so excited anymore.

I used this on my 21' CC to strip bottom paint. The work is being done with the boat on the trailer, temp's in the upper 80's. I like to keep moving on a project and products that work fast, Aqua strip is slow. When appplying it overhead to the bottom of the boat I had a hard time getting it thick enough to work and not dry up. When applyed thick enough it does work, but its still slow. I ended up switching to a different fiberglass safe chemical stipper that could be scraped in 10-15 mins.

Comments about Back To Nature Aqua Strip Paint Stripper:
I had a bit of a learning curve with this product so I thought I would pass along to you what I learned. First I have a 30 year old boat with layers and layers of bottom paint that I wanted to get rid of. I applied this and let it sit overnight (mistake one). The next morning it was fine and paint was easily being stripped off. Not down to the gel coat but at least 5+ layers. As the morning drew on the day got hotter and hotter and the product dried out. This is very bad. They say you can wet it with water but I found once it dried it got hard as a rock and the stripping was very hard. End of the day I was beat but tons of paint were removed. Next day I tried it again, applied over whole boat and went to breakfast. Came back and started stripping like crazy. This was really working now and I was getting 4' to 5' strips of thick paint off with each scraper try. But again as the day wore on it dried out on me and again it became a struggle. If I was to do it again I would apply the remover to 1/4 of the boat, go get breakfast come back apply to the next 1/4 of the boat, strip the first 1/4, apply the next 1/4, strip the 2nd 1/4 etc. until done. I think that would work just great. I have a 30' fin keeled sailboat and one gallon is just about enough to cover one side.

This Product works!!

Comments about Back To Nature Aqua Strip Paint Stripper:
This Product works. I am half way thru stripping a 22 foot seafarer sailboat with bottom paint dating back to 1976. My best advice? FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS. I made every effort to come up with a way to improve performance only to find that the directions have it all figured out. As any chemical the results are directly related to the temperature. The specs tell you to use this product between 60F and 80F. As I am in the northeast I have been using it between 40F and 60F. I would recommend that you try to stay above 50. The dwell time is also critical, measure in hours. In the cold temps I use a minimum of 24 hours but I have left it on the hull for a week or more. It will dry out, and as a water based product this stops any effect on the paint, but some water and a thin application of the product brings it back to life. I have not seen any damage to the gell coat. My conclusion? There is no such thing as a free lunch. This is still a hard job. So far I have not had the results shown on the web sites vidio, possably due to the cold temps. Better than sanding and grinding. No fumes or bad toxic chemicals (I use this without a resporator). I did a test with the interlux stripper it was very toxic and it had very little effect on the bottom paint. Aqua-Strip is a good product for a very dirty job.
