Owatrol Marine Strip

Owatrol Marine Strip has been specially formulated as a solvent free gel stripper for paint, varnish and anti-fouling, removing up to 8 coats of paint in one go.

Best Uses

Owatrol Marine Strip will remove varnish, stains and anti-fouling from all surfaces such as wood, plastic, GRP and metal, although it is not suitable for use on aluminium surfaces. Marine Strip is not effective on polyurethane paint and varnish, 2 component paints or baked-on paints and enamels. Once applied under normal conditions it will not dry but will remain active for up to 12 hours and can be easily washed off with water and a jet washer.

Application

Remove any loose and flaking paint. Brush off any physical surface contamination i.e. moss, general dirt etc.

Apply a thick coat of Owatrol Marine Strip over the whole surface to be stripped. For woods rich in tannins, work large areas in zones to avoid excessive darkening of the wood. Allow product to work. Remove Owatrol Marine Strip and dissolved paint with fresh water and a scrubbing brush or paint scraper, alternatively use a pressure washer (max. 60 bars / 870 psi). The use of hot water makes the job easier. Thoroughly rinse the surface with fresh clean water.

After stripping and rinsing. All porous surfaces must be immediately treated with Owatrol Deck Cleaner while still wet to neutralise the surface. Consult us for additional information and advice prior to using Owatrol Marine Strip on Oak and
