Do you know any good heavy paint removal for wood doors?

Yeah I want to know some good stripping product for wood doors.

I have a wood door and try to refinish it (one side only) but cannot find a stripping or paint removal product that is working. The paint or stain that is on there now is very heavy and have tried sanding but it is starting to flatten door is some areas and the stain or paint that is currently on there is not coming off or lightening up any. Please help! - Trying to do this on own and it is starting to become costly. Would appreciate any advice on products that would help me.

Answer:

“ZIP STRIP”, you can’t do it in one shot, it takes several applications of the product, put it on quickly with an old brush, and in a few seconds you will see everything start to bubble off, put newspaper on the floor, or better yet, use it outside, as fumes may be strong, and it will be very messy with gobs of paint and stripper coming off, a cardboard box works well as a recepticle to throw away the melting paint/varnish, you will need gloves too as it may be irratating if it comes in contact with the skin.. china manufacturer desk Use a 2″ scraper to peel off the bubbled up varnish/paint when it starts to bubble up after application. After 2 or three times you’ll be down to the bare wood, then you can start sanding. It works pretty quickly, have lots of rags handy. then stain the wood, and apply polyurathane “Exterior type”, use a good stain and poly such as “ZAR”, a bit pricey but, it won’t skid, it makes a great finish, and saves work,it is “MARINE” GRADE rated. Be careful, wood finishing can become relaxing and addicting. If you choose the mechanical method of stripping the wood (SAND PAPER, scraping, etc.) you’ll be there for weeks.
