New Colron wood dye and Nitromors formulas

[aristomatic]

Star Chem Synstrip makes Nitromors seem like moisturiser....
This was a post on a car hobby forum about paintstrippers. I am presuming it is related to the new formula Nitromors.

I got all geared up to try soda blasting but never gave it a try,it seems like a good enviro friendly option,I believe Arm & Hammer are the people to buy the blasting soda from

I invested in the soda blasting gear and have used it once on my NovaMat. It worked well in that it removed the old paint and left the metal perfect for spraying. It does tend to block easily, though, so be prepared to spend a bit of time clearing blockages. Also, I used it in my garden one warm, still, day and a large area of lawn was killed by the soda deposited on it. My better half was not thrilled (the NovaMat painted up nicely, though). I will buy a blasting box before using it again......

Paramose is the best stripper out there now
It's a mate of mine selling it on ebay ,don't know how much tho
He sells tons of it every week to the antiques trade
It's very thin and spreads great
Again it burns the hands of you if you splash
He has been selling it years at the fairs for £20 a tin
And the same people keep coming back for more
So it must be good , my wife stripped our garage door with it
It was enamelled paint
I also think he has a website
If he has I'll put it on here

Just ordered some will report back on the results

Sounds good as I agree nitromors is rubbish, and I hate sanding for ever......also I hope the having to sign paperwork is not too onerous

[widget2k4]

Ordered mine on eBay, they said they would email a form to fill in, still waiting on it but the paint stripper landed on my doorstep the next day lol

Online via the trade suppliers there is just an auto check box to tick, it's just to protect the supplier so they can show the authorities they have written confirmation from the buyer that all is in order as a trade sale and not for home use etc.
As it's now not stocked at pukka retail outlets the general public don't have normal access to these type of products.

Hope it's not a painted doorstep.

It would appear the ghost of Ronnie Corbett has just entered the coin slot of one Mr Penny Machines!

Nitromors should be reported under the trade descriptions act. That stuff does not strip paint. I took the overpriced rubbish back to B&Q and told them it did not do what it said on the tin. I got a full refund. I have been using Starchem Synstrip available on eBAY. It's an industrial stripper and will strip anything. You have to buy five litres though. I also agree with the Colron comments. Just bought a tin of dark oak. It doesn't spread evenly and it's nowhere near a dark oak colour when it's applied. Another great EU directive to mess things up.

I've just used the Liberon recommended by 13rebel and have had great results just like the original coloron, don't waste your money with the new coloron it leaves the finish patchy and dark in places, and it doesn't really soak into the wood it can be scraped back off with your finger nail etc, and if you put too much on it pulls the first lot back off

[13rebel]

Glad to hear you had a good result on my recommendation Widget. Having never used wood dye, I was surprised at how easy it was to apply with a cloth leaving an even, streak-free finish.

Anyone got feedback on this stripper Paramose - whether the thin or thick version is best, seems there are two? Thick you appear to be able to use water to wash off.

Also anyone had experience with Morrells wood stain?

[widget2k4]

Had good results with this Tom, just as good if not better than Paramorse, like wallpaper paste but good for sticking on the sides without running off.

[aristomatic]

My only input would be show extreme caution with any thin version as it can drip or splash, onto you, or anything nearby, to where you are working. If you haven't taken necessary precautions beforehand then you will soon find out.

Thanks Keith,

Finger got carried away and just ordered the other one, but will keep a note of this as well as I have lots to do......

Finally after 10 years I have finally started doing serious restorations even dropped off my firs chrome jobs, trying Ashfords as not too far. Will see how I get on.

My only input would be show extreme caution with any thin version...

Noted, will be using gloves and giggles and also lots of patience....

About time you got off your arse and done some restoration work
Don't forget the before and after pics

What sort of stripping are you planning?
