Date Run:
05/05/2005Experiment Procedure:
Basic cleaning performance testing was conducted using ASTM G122 as the bases for cleaning.
Basic cleaning performance testing was conducted using ASTM G122 as the bases for cleaning.
Cleaning: Brush on gel/paste strippers in one thick coat.
Run Time: Let sit 3 hours (180min)
Removal: manual scrape with plastic spatula/scraper (Home Depot general paint scraper)
Drying: 72-hour dry time to allow for evaporation of strippers from wood.
Success Rating:
Preliminary compatibility tests on substrate coupons encouraging for at least one cleaning chemistry. More in-depth laboratory testing necessary.
