We Tested Every Paint Stripper in Ireland - Here's What Won
We tested every major paint stripper and paint remover available in Ireland to find out which ones actually work. In this comprehensive comparison, we put Nitromors, Berling, Home Strip, Arc, TX10, Fluxaf Super, Peelaway, Strypit, Blackfriar, and Peel Tec head-to-head to see how they perform on real surfaces.
The results were shocking - not all paint strippers are created equal. We measured everything from stripping time and effectiveness to VOC emissions, solvent content, and how much elbow grease you'll need. Some eco-friendly paint removers actually outperformed traditional solvent-based strippers, while others left surfaces requiring extensive scraping and cleaning. Whether you're stripping wood, metal, or masonry, choosing the right paint remover makes all the difference.
This is Part 1 of our extensive paint stripper testing series. Part 2 is out now on the channel - with detailed results, safety comparisons, and our top recommendations for DIY and professional use. Perfect for anyone renovating furniture, restoring woodwork, or tackling any paint removal project in Ireland or the UK.
