Dale,<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>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!<br><br>

</font><font face="Verdana" size=2 color="#000040"> Thanks for the
web site. I think this thread on strippers went round before but, I'll
ask anyway as to the effectiveness of these water based strippers
compared to the chemical nasty ones I use.<br>
By the way I was at Jon pages shop two weeks ago and I was very
sold on the ebony finish he had done in water based lacquer.<br>
Thanks>>>>Dale Erwin</font><br>

The first link is Homestead Finishing home page, the second their page
addressing Oxford products. I had bought a 10 gallons of a stripper that
is water-washable and just didn't know much about those that might
require solvents to clean up the stripper mess.<br><br>
