TX10 Paint and Varnish Stripper 2.5L

This paint stripper is very useful and works effectively for removing old paint and varnish from surfaces. I found the product strong enough to deal with stubborn layers while still being manageable to apply. Effectiveness: It softened the paint well and made scraping much easier. It performed reliably on small DIY jobs. Value for money: Good value for the price, especially considering the strength and results achieved. Ease of use: Straightforward to apply with a brush, and the instructions were clear. Odour: The smell is noticeable, as expected with paint removal products, but not excessively strong when used with proper ventilation. Safety: It is important to wear gloves and ensure good ventilation during use. Overall, I am satisfied with the quality and performance. It works well for home improvement tasks and makes paint removal more manageable.

I'm in the process of stripping the paint off an aluminium bike frame with this stuff and did some experimentation. The first thing you need to know about it, is it's about 1/8th the strength of oldschool Nitromors, if you're looking for something that works as well as that old stuff and as fast then you're going to be disappointed, but with some patience, prep work and time, you can get this stuff to work, but be prepared to be working on it over several days! The instructions tell you to splodge a load on, leave it an hour and then apply another coat and leave again, this does precisely nothing and only seems to serve the purpose of making you waste loads and buy more! So here's what I did: 1) Pre sand with a 240 grit paper to break through any clearcoat and give the gloop a chance to penetrate the paint, be careful not to go too deep and scratch the metal underneath! Also remove any decals if you can, if they're clearcoated over it might be worth sanding through to get them off as they will prevent the gloop working properly. 2) The next part is down to you how to go about it, but personally I would say to do small areas and individual tubes rather than the whole frame in one go, as this stuff dries out really fast once unwrapped and loses its potency while you're trying to scrape paint off another area. Select the area you want to work on and cover it as thickly as possible, but instead of waiting an hour and applying another coat, wrap the area in clingfilm, making sure it's touching the gloop fully and then leave it for several hours. (I left mine overnight, it doesn't smell so you can leave it indoors somewhere warm, just away from pets or small people!). 3) If you've covered the area with enough, after a decent amount of time the paint will almost fall off with little effort, although you may find that a stanley blade will also come in handy for peeling stubborn areas and getting into corners etc. 4) You will probably need to repeat this process at least once more in order to get any awkward areas or anywhere where the gloop wasn't effective, which will happen. It can also be a bit weird with primer, it'll either strip it along with the paint or it won't touch it at all, this isn't a problem if you're only planning to repaint the frame as some prep sanding will be sufficient to primer over, but if you want to polish that part, then it's time to get the sandpaper out! In all, it's not as horribly unusable as other brands, but unless you know someone with a paint shop who can order the really good stuff, then this is good as you're going to get! Pros: Doesn't smell evil so you don't have to spend hours outside in the garden freezing to death. Cons: It's not oldschool stripper so you won't be done and dusted in an afternoon!

Works great. The paint starts to bubble in about an hour. Literally just wipe it off and it’s done.

It is a good stripper, it worked well. But delivered with damage. it's so disappointing.

I swear by this for stripping paint on so many different things. It’s non caustic so much better than some of the other strippers out there and strips really easily. Quality is great and doesn’t have an awful chemical smell like a lot of other brands.

If you don't wrap the item you're stripping or seal it in a container this stuff dries out very quickly. You really need to slather it on as a very thick coat of goop for it to be effective, don't brush it on like paint, spray it on like whipped cream as that's how thick you need to make the layer for it to actually work and if its exposed to the air it dries out which thins it out and it yellows and becomes useless. On first attempt at stripping multiple layers of water based paint off a bedroom radiator two 500ml bottles were not enough to even do a very good job at taking off the very top layer even when allowed to sit for two hours. On second attempt i removed the radiator completely and bought a 2.5ltr bottle of this so i could lay the radiator on a thick plastic sheet wrap, i emptied the entire bottle and spread it out as best as i could making sure everywhere was covered in this goop and i wrapped it and left it for over 24 hours - where the stripper was on the paint in the thickest amounts is where all the layers of paint including the enamel base coat just peeled right off in a disgusting but satisfying way. Do not use this in your home without amazing ventilation, it does create a vile smell, and you really need to rinse and scrub or jet wash the item afterwards to remove any residue as this product does create fumes that stink and will irritate you, I was smelling it for about a week even after washing my radiator on the first attempt, with the second attempt i used a jet washer to power wash the radiator to remove all residue.

Very effective stripper, it stripped the paint off of some metal parts in around 15 minutes. It is quite messy so I would recommend using some kind of disposable vessel to lay the parts in (I used a disposable foil baking tray).

Decided to try this out on an old stove , in our house we are renovating. The previous owners had dabbled in paint in it and I wanted to see the original colour. Product work very well - Added pictures for process . After leaving for 1 hour it literally wiped away. Bare in mind different materials have different outcomes. I did vover with cling film to keep moisture in. I would recommend this product. No odour , no drips , no faff ! I bought the smaller bottle just in case, however would repurchase. Going to get to repainting this stove in a more traditional palette.
