Sunnyside 65732A Multi-Strip ADVANCED Paint & Varnish Remover, Quart

I made a lot of impulsive decisions while doing all the renovations on our Airbnb on one side of our duplex. Most were good or okay decisions. But then came the sink.To put this into context, let’s start at the beginning. I used a very nice countertop paint kit to cover up the hideous counters but it was recommended to seal it with epoxy for extra durability. I had never worked with epoxy before. That is it’s own story... there was epoxy everywhere. Some of it dripped through the taped barriers into the standard silver/metal sink. I tried so many things to get it off. The sound of steel wool on metal was ingratiating. The box cutter approach was dangerous.Meanwhile, I thought the silver/nickel of the kitchen faucet didn’t look right with the now dark counters and the more modern look we were going for. I compared the price of new faucets to spray paint... I obtained a can of black spray paint for metal and taped up the sink once again, perhaps halfheartedly. The faucet looked great! But there was mists of black spray paint that somehow made it on the sink bottom along with a few dribble spots.Feeling lightheaded from the spray paint fumes, i realized how easy it would be to solve the epoxy and spray paint issue by... just spraying the hell out of the sink and making it all black! Genius! It looked pretty good from the start. I sealed it (or tried) with some finish I had that said it was okay on metal. I crossed my fingers and hoped it would last.After our first guests, there was a chip in the sink paint. I grumbled about it — what careless people did that to my sink?? — but drew my weapon of choice once again. Problem solved. Or so I thought...After each guest there were more and more chips, flakes, scratches on my precious paint job. I bought different spray paint. I bought different finishes. I thought, “this will be better” each time. Alas, every effort I made turned out no different than the last. I came to the conclusion that either the sink had to go... or I did.But then a promising idea miraculously came to mind; if MORE paint wasn’t the answer, would removing it altogether be the saving throw? When this paint stripper arrived I am sure the Amazon van driver had no idea what power he was driving around the city with.I was on a time crunch with the next guest arriving in 3 days — would it be long enough to make this work, else fix another disastrous decision? It was enough — more than enough. I slathered on the goo half skeptically, half holding out hope. While the container said it could take several hours to a day and several layers, even the whole container, the layers and layers of various paints and varnishes started to shrivel up to be wiped away and never seen again under the first strokes of stripper. The whole sink was cleaned up and looking like a vessel within you’d actually be willing to was your dishes or hands within 3 hours. It would have been less if I hadn’t taken a break to eat.The grande finale was seeing the edges of those large droplets of epoxy start to curl up. This far exceeded my expectations — even the epoxy cleared up?Even the epoxy.

Took the old paint off of a concrete porch. I put it on at the recommended amount, 100 sq ft per gallon. I could see it working within 30 minutes but left it on overnight since some areas were very thick with multiple layers. The next day I used a pressure washer to blast it off. Bare concrete underneath.

good product that does the job.

This product smells horrible. I watched videos and they said you could do inside the house I did this in our sun room I have been airing out the room. I would not use this item again, after I applied I was dizzy and my throat is sore.

I give this a 3.5 out of 5. I am a big fan of Sunnyside Multi-strip, but I wanted something faster. I tried Jasco and Klean Strip's "safer" strippers, but they smelled awful and barely took off 1 layer. So, I tried this one. It is faster, but it is not nearly as thick as the other Sunnyside strippers, so it does not "cling" to vertical surfaces. I think it would be a lot better on a horizontal surface, but I am working on a door frame. Because it is not drip-free, the coverage is not even; lower sections that caught drips showed more progress than sections closer to the top. What I started doing was covering the stripper-brushed areas with wax paper to "hold" the stripper in place, which seemed to help. The stripper does stay wet longer, as I noticed areas where I had stripped last night were still a little wet this morning without the wax paper. Again, it does work, and I will use it, but unlike its fellow Sunnyside stripper products, it's penchant for dripping does not make it the best option for vertical surfaces. However, it does make it possible to strip in 4 hours instead of the normal 8 hours for the multi-strip.

OEM item. Softened15 coats of paint in 24 hours when covered with paper. Ventilate area well. I wore a carbon filter respirator when applying and removing this product.
