Description

ABR® Citrus Paint Removers are designed to remove multiple layers of latex paint, oil paint, varnish, stain and other finishes from wood, masonry, plastered walls or metal in a single application. ABR® Citrus Paint Removers are a unique development in the paint and coating removal industry. ABR® Citrus Paint Removers do NOT contain methylene chloride and offer a fresh citrus scent. The formulas are recommended for both interior and exterior use. No neutralizing is needed. The formulas are non-damaging to wood, masonry, plastered walls and metal.

NOTE: ABR® Citrus Paint Removers may damage or soften asphalt, plastic, rubber, tile, linoleum and adjacent painted surfaces. In some cases, ABR® Citrus Paint RemoversPaste can be reused for multiple applications. ABR® Citrus Paint Removers are ideal for intricate carvings, moldings, pillars, fine furniture and antiques. When applied uniformly, ABR® Citrus Paint Removers penetrate multiple layers of paint mil thickness and reduce the water rinse normally needed to dissolve stripper residue. The special paste formula stays wet and active longer than conventional strippers. In some cases, the paste formula may be removed and reused on multiple surfaces of your current stripping project. ABR® Citrus Paint Remover Liquid is ideal for refinishing work and will remove thin layers of varnish, stain and graffiti. The liquid formula can also be used for the clean-up of paint splatters. ABR® Citrus Paint Removers Paste may also be used as a poltice stain remover for embedded graffiti stains. It is also great for removing mastics, decals, and traffic markers.
