After trying conventional paint stripper with no such luck, there seemed only one product for the job. Upon trying test patches, drying times and thicknesses of the buttercream-esque consistency of PeelAway 1 were decided. With so many layers of paint to eat through and the required thickness of PeelAway required, it was going to take three days for it to fully dry and &#8220;peel away&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>A quick abrade to the surface and brushing away cobwebs and loose dirt was key as even the slightest contaminants can affect the performance. Applying the product was like icing a large wooden cake with a smelly, aggressive icing, which seems quite the opposite to conventional cake decorating. Then covering the windows with the blankets, tucking it into bed and saying goodnight to the old coatings as when you see them again they will look very different. The product underneath had already started to brown after several minutes on the surface. This was a sure sign of the chemical reactions needed to take place for maximum efficiency.<\/p>\n<h2>The Big Reveal<\/h2>\n<p>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180119_111512.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6121\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180119_111512.jpg\" alt=\"lifting-peelaway-1-from-the-window\" width=\"580\" height=\"663\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180119_111512.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180119_111512-262x300.jpg 262w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/20180116_103456-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6120\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/20180116_103456-1.jpg\" alt=\"peelaway-1-in-action\" width=\"580\" height=\"357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/20180116_103456-1.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/20180116_103456-1-300x185.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>72 hours later it was time for the big reveal. Sure enough, as it\u2019s name suggests, the product peels off from the surface of the wood taking most of the product with it and hardening into a plaster-like consistency, which made it super easy to remove the crunchy blend of product, old coatings and blanket. Wearing gloves and using the \n<a href=\"\/product\/barrettine-peelaway-easy-grip-stripping-knife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\nPeelaway Easy Grip Stripping Knife<\/a>, removing from the surface was almost as satisfying as pulling an old scab or removing PVA glue from your hands as a child. Satisfying, but messy.<\/p>\n<p>Once all of the old, hard product and blanket(s) had been removed and disposed of responsibly, the sanding and finishing touches can begin. Before sanding, one final stage is needed&#8230;neutralisation. A 50:50 mix of neutraliser and water must be applied to the surface and allowed to dry. It\u2019s a good idea to then check the pH of the surface with some litmus paper otherwise you might run into trouble when applying a top coat.<\/p>\n<h2>Final Sanding<\/h2>\n<p>\n<a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180202_164958.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6124\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180202_164958.jpg\" alt=\"final-sanding-after-peelaway-1\" width=\"580\" height=\"580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180202_164958.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180202_164958-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.wood-finishes-direct.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/y20180202_164958-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Starting with P80, through P120 and P240, the golden colour of these antique windows starts shining through once again.
