---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Dale, I tried the water based strippers a few times and was disappointed with the results every time. I remember hearing / being told that it was a one coat application and even though you had to wait a lengthy amount of time before you took it off, it would all come off in one coat. Well ... not so in my experience. I had tried some of it on a main lid and it was so soggy by the end of the wait time that the edge veneer came off with the varnish. I was more than slightly disappointed. I've never had that happen with regular stripper. I was all for it if it would truly remove everything in one coat but it did not. The regular Toluene stripper did a better job and at a much faster rate. My 2 cents!
