Review: If You Want an Easy Process, This is Your Product: Read my successful method in this review. - I could not have completed this project without this product, due to arthritis in my hands. Here is how I used it, based on other reviewers recommendations. I placed cardboard and/or paper down on the carpeting under this cabinet to keep it protected from the damp paint that came loose during this process. Here are the steps I used. 1. I wore nitrile gloves to keep my hands safe. 2) After emptying it of its contents, I thoroughly cleaned the china cabinet. It had a very old, shiny, faux gold with wood grain, paint effect under a heavy gloss varnish. There were at least four coats of paint, including black three layers down, and a wood stain, likely original from when the piece was first sold. 2. I applied this product to one small area at a time (the top, one side at a time, one surface at a time...you get the idea). I tried to paper and tape the glass, but that didn't work. The product was absorbed into the paper. I just cleaned the glass with left over product after the project was completed (I used heavy duty nail polish remover in tiny, hard to reach areas). 3. I used a sponge or towel to apply the product. I applied to an area of the cabinet about the size of a paper towel. I used a spray bottle to dampen a paper towel. I placed the damp paper towel over the product. I used painter tape to seal plastic wrap over the paper towel. After about 30 mins. I checked to make sure the paper towel was still damp. If it wasn't, I misted it with water again and returned the plastic over it. I repeated this as necessary in areas that were tougher to tackle (there were a few, especially at the beginning of the project, and the inside of the top of the cabinet was awkward. I had to do a few spots more than twice). After about an hour from first applying the product, I used a scraper to simply slide ALL of the layers of varnish, paint and stain off. It was amazing. I needed two bottles of this to complete the inside and outside of the china cabinet. The smell wasn't unpleasant. Not chemical. I did use a fan (which was why I started checking the paper towels were still damp every 30 mins or so) and was right next to an open window for ventilation. The fan was not facing the cabinet, but its effect was enough to start to dry the paper towels more than once. I tried another product that has a citrus base that has a smell I cannot tolerate. I prefer this product in every conceivable way. It is easy to use. It is safe. I like the size as I cannot handle heavy containers. This product sticks to the surface well, especially vertical surfaces, when using the damp paper towel covered with plastic wrap method. I never would have been able to tackle this project if I had needed to use elbow grease. I needed a few different sized scrapers, because there were very narrow, as well as rounded areas in the cabinet. I had some clay shaping tools that worked really well for this. I also used paper towels when removing the ribbons of paint layers that were coming off. That was sticky and messy. I went through a lot of nitrile gloves and paper towels, but both were critical to my success. Use the thicker quality gloves (6 mil or more), not the cheapest (3 mil). Overall, this is my go-to product now. I am eyeing lots of other pieces of furniture that won't be devalued by stripping, and will look so much better in their natural state. As a follow up. I cleaned this cabinet with Old English wood oil. It is an old but effective wood cleaner I've used for decades. Photo 1 shows the ugly gold paint still present inside on the bottom shelf of the cabinet. The whole thing looked like that. Photo 2 shows the new improved cabinet after stripping and then applying Old English Wood Oil. I did not add a stain. I'm very pleased with the results. Now I can fill it back up with my china.
Review: Works great - This stripper worked great. No odor easy to apply. We stripped the stain and varnish off of our kitchen table. I just had to experiment with it to see how long to leave it on and it work excellent we would definitely recommend this product

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone used this product on a decorative plastered wall?**
A: Not sure but possibly it could work

**Q: will this procuct remove paint stains on concrete tile floor**
A: My experience with this product ("paint stripper") was a negative one.
I bought it to remove ONE-WEEK-OLD STANDARD (out of a rattle can) SPRAY PAINT and this "remover/stripper" FAILED extremely bad at doing ANYTHING!
Correction...it did made the surface "TACKY" at best.
I applied multiple coats...extended the sitting period...aided with scrubbing...and NOTHING!
This product failed at removing simple FRESH spray paint!!?
I cannot conclude that this product behaves the same for anyone else or if I received a bad batch(?)..but this was my personal experience with it.
I never got a chance to try it on other surfaces...like concrete tile...I hope my answer and experience helps you in some way with your project.
Good luck

**Q: Will this work to take finish off of Kitchen cabinets so they can be painted?**
A: It depends on the finish. I used it to strip an oak floor and it worked well. Just keep the surface wet. Don’t let it dry out. 
I found the mfg to be responsive so you might go to their site and contact them

**Q: Will these strip paint off sneakers?**
A: If it is a latex paint it will do nothing.  If it is an oil base paint, it will work wonders.  Good news is, if it’s a learned paint and this does nothing, simple rubbing alcohol will get it with some rubbing, or goof off if you wanna wipe it right off in no time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great
*by A***R on March 8, 2026*

This stripper worked great. No odor easy to apply. We stripped the stain and varnish off of our kitchen table. I just had to experiment with it to see how long to leave it on and it work excellent we would definitely recommend this product

### ⭐ Didn't work!!
*by P***E on March 10, 2024*

I had been using Citristrip (stripping kitchen cabinets, 1st time user, brand new to this)...I'm doing my entire kitchen by myself. I'm working on 2 doors at a time. Citristrip was working great but I wanted to look at other alternatives, so I read reviews & they all said no smell & worked easy. NOT!! I applied 2 coats as per directions, covered in plastic wrap, 6hrs later the finish still wasn't coming of AT ALL! See 3 pics attached. 1st pic is AFTER 6 hrs & you can see the few little places where minimal amount scraped off. 2nd pic is what plastic wrap looked like (I was hopeful...but then disappointed) 3rd pic is 1 application of Citristrip. Throughout the day, the smell of MAX STRIP seemed to get stronger & smell chemical like. Returning this product, already got the code. I'm irritated I wasted an entire day & got absolutely no work done on my kitchen. I rarely leave reviews...so either has to blow my mind & exceed expectations OR be a complete dud. Obviously this falls into dud. I'd give it zero stars if I could, especially for the $39 price. I thought I was going to breeze through my whole kitchen in one container which would've been cheaper than Citristrip but I'll stick with Citristrip, lesson learned!!
