What happens here

Begin by applying a generous coat of Kabosh stripping agent to the table surface. The existing finish layers on this table are extensive, including a paste wax, followed by a bonding primer, then two coats of a multi-surface acrylic, and finally a clear coat. Allow the Kabosh to sit and penetrate these various layers, softening and lifting them from the wood. Using a flat scraper or putty knife, carefully scrape away the softened material from the table surface. The video shows the third application of Kabosh being scraped off, indicating that multiple coats and passes are often necessary to effectively remove stubborn, multi-layered finishes and reach the bare wood.

Goal: Remove all existing finish layers down to bare wood.

Tools and materials

  • Protective Gloves — Protecting hands from the chemical stripper

What they say

Hide

Today, we're using kabosh to strip this table. The table had a paste wax on it. Then somebody painted a bonding primer over the top of that with two coats of a multi-surface acrylic. And then they clear the coat of that. So we've put kabosh on there. This is our third coat of a kabosh. This table's almost stripped down to the bare wood now. And then we're going to take and wash it with dish soap,
