Paint Stripping
Over the past year I have become something of an expert at paint stripping. The picture shows the window architraves from James's room at different stages of paint removal. I start with an i-Strip heat lamp (top) which heats the paint allowing it to be scraped off. This leaves a thin residue (middle) which I remove with steel wool and meths. Finally I use coopers paint stripper to remove the last stubborn bits of paint. This is a great product which lifts the paint right out of the grain (bottom).
