A highly effective paint stripper, the Paint Panther Paint & Varnish Remover from Barrettine is suitable for use on wood, masonry & some metal.
This fast-acting, non-drip paint stripper can remove multiple layers of paint. Suitable for removing most types of coatings, including metal and hammer type paints, acrylics, polyurethanes and some two pack/factory applied coatings.
The Paint Panther Stripper is a Methylene chloride-free, non-caustic formulation, with anti-evaporation technology designed to keep it active for longer. It is relatively low odour compared to other paint strippers and has been formulated as a gel formula to cling to vertical surfaces.

Before use, test a small inconspicuous area with all products to be used, to ensure a satisfactory final finish and compatibility.
Due to the enormous number of coatings available on the market, the compatibility of Paint Panther cannot be confirmed without a test patch. For large jobs, we advise that customers purchase a 250ml test can of Paint Panther to confirm its effectiveness, before committing to a larger volume.
Protect any surface not intended to be stripped with suitable sheeting.
Providing no pre-1960s paint is present, the surface can be lightly scored to improve the performance. If in doubt, do not score.
Shake/stir well before use. Optimum working conditions are between 5-25°C. Do not apply to more than ~0.5m2 at a time, as the product will evaporate before full stripping is possible. If the product evaporates, the coatings below will begin to harden again.
Decant a small amount of the product into a suitable non-plastic container and replace the cap. A clean, empty jam jar is a good makeshift option. Apply Paint Panther liberally using a clean brush, by dabbing onto the surface. Do not spread too thinly, as this will reduce the working time of the product.
Wait 10-15 minutes, in which time many coatings will begin to blister. Test a small area with a shave hook or stripping knife for ease of removal. If required, work in further then apply additional product, rubbing it well into any blisters which have formed. Allow to penetrate for an additional 10-20 minutes, monitoring closely to ensure the product is not permitted to dry out, before removing. A stiff bristled brush can be used for removal in intricate areas.
Collect stripping waste on an appropriate surface such as old newspaper and leave in the open air to dry for several hours. After this, dispose of as waste coatings/paints following your local authority’s recommended disposal route. Reapply as necessary to remove all coatings.
