Gather Tools and Discuss Safety

couple different kinds of chemical stripper when it comes down to it a lot of the newer lines have come in gel formulation so that you can use them on horizontal or vertical surfaces and it keeps that chemical from evaporating especially on a warm day or during the Sun which you should try to be in the shade as much as possible the you know there are some that are less like that you have to put some plastic over it so you put the the stripper down you put the plastic over the top and then you just hold that you let it set and do its job breaking down and then you're gonna flip that plastic back work on a small area flip the plastic back and keep working your way down with this gel that's not the case not the case so some of their tools we've got we've got rubber gloves John's already got his on I had to take mine off to set up camera but when you want some chemicals resistant rubber gloves we've got what we call just chip brushes these are just throw away brushes that we can apply the product with we do have scrapers because we were starting by just scraping the bulk of the paint off with our carbide strippers so we don't have to just wait for the chemical to do it and these work really fast and we've got rats we masked off the door with plastic and high protection eye protection I mean you don't want this these chemicals vibrate in your eyes that could be a really bad thing and then we've got drop cloths down here we're just on a an old concrete floor in a warehouse here so it doesn't matter if it gets on the ground but then we just don't want it on the ground so we have some drop cloths down and I think that's it here we go let's strip this thing
