    Decent paint stripper?

    Lads, I'm looking for some quality paint stripper that will actually get the job done. I used nitromors a few years back and found it brilliant. The latest bottle I bought last weekend is absolutely crap. I googled it and it seems the recipe has changed to comply with an eu directive or something.

    Can anyone recommend something that I can preferably get my hands on in Ireland?

    RE: Decent paint stripper?

    I've been down this same route a lot in the past couple of years
    and the best match i could find in terms of performance to the old
    recipe Nitromors is a product called Ardrox 2526.
    It's an industrial grade Aircarft paint stripper. Unfortunately it only
    seems to be sold in 25 litre drums at a cost of £295 sterling.
    I had planned to buy a drum and split it into smaller containers
    to sell on and offset some of the cost but as of yet haven't pulled the trigger.

    The one thing I have found with the current plale shadow of it's former
    self Nitromors is that if you slop it on to the item in question as heavy as possible
    and then cover loosely with a plastic bag to stop it evaporating and then leave
    for 24 hours it actually does start to lift most paint types.

    Thanks for that mate. Ill paint it on thick and cover them for the night, hopefully it does the trick.

    That other stuff does sound like exactly what I'm looking for, but @ £295 pounds its just not feasible with the current exchange rate.

    I read a couple of reviews that recommend synstrip? Have you ever tried that? Its about €50 from the uk for 5L. Im just impatient and dont want to wait. Might order a can and see how it goes!

    Thanks for the help again!
