Abstract
A stripping composition and method for removing a coating, such as a water-based or oil-based paint or stain, from a surface without requiring the use of methylene chloride. The stripping composition preferably comprises at least one ether, at least one ester, at least one amine, at least one alcohol, and at least one glycoside and does not contain any methylene chloride. Preferred ingredients comprise 1,3 dioxolane, acetic acid methyl ester or a carbonate ester or both, MEA (2-aminoethanol), benzene methanol, an alkyl polyglucoside, and methylcellulose. The stripping composition is applied to a coating for a period of time between 5-10 minutes for most water and oil-based coatings and 20-90 minutes for most epoxy coatings to effectively remove at least 80% and preferably at least 90% of the coating.
