The SuperStrip arrived, and I thought to give a test today. It was nice outside at first, then the heavens opened, so I had to retreat into the kitchen sink with the windows wide open! Good job I'm the household authority!
The technique I adopted was a jamjar with some of the stripper decanted into it, and an old stiff toothbrush. Wearing latex gloves, because the stripper dries skin with extended contact, I used the brush, dipped in the stripper, and used circular motions on the paint to be removed. At regular intervals I stuck the body under the hot tap and used the brush to dislodge lumps and rinse things down.
It worked remarkably quickly. I've stripped one side of the coach in about half an hour or so.
This is the untreated side.
This is the stripped side. Some work with a scraper and sanding will still be required to get paint out of crevices, but I am suitably impressed.
This stripper can be reused for quite a while, so having invested in the largest size (250ml) and a jamjar with a lid will keep me going for some time.
