Frequently Asked Questions
My paint isn't bubbling. Why isn’t it working?
It is working; you are probably trying to remove water-based paint. Water-based paints soften, but do not blister up. Follow the instructions for application, and in a few minutes test an area for softness. When old latex paint becomes soft and gooey, scrape up. If you are working on wood, rinse with some paint thinner and super fine steel wool. Do not use water to rinse a wood surface. Water will raise the grain of the wood. Let dry.
