    Wish I could write a positive review but unfortunately my experience with this remover was not great . Watched a YouTube video on This Old House where they used this product and Dumond paper on moulding just like mine in an old house just like mine and the paint stripped away almost effortlessly. As you can see from my photos that was not my experience. I left the product on for 24 hours then began the process of removing with a scraper and seven hours later just had a huge mess on my hands. Ended up having to purchase new wainscoting to place over as it was simply impossible to get the surface clean and smooth. ( we were under a deadline and didn’t have 3-4 days for sanding , priming etc).

    1.0 out of 5 stars NOT so EFFECTIVE for PRE-1980 PAINT removal
    Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2021
    I need to remove layers of paint, including lead, from the wood framing around where a new custom-built wood frame storm door will go in the front entry to a 1940 house built by my parents. After viewing a video on YouTube demonstrating how to use SMART STRIP to remove paint on woodwork inside a house, I thought this product would work for my purposes. So, I purchased 1 gallon from Amazon. NOWHERE ON AMAZON DID I FIND INFO STATING THIS PRODUCT WORKS BEST ON POST-1980 PAINT REMOVAL, nor was that info given in the YouTube video I had viewed. On Friday, June 11, 2021 @ 3:25 pm I painted the Smart Strip on a 12" x 5" test area on the bottom right side of my door frame. Left product on for 24 hours. On Saturday, June 12, 2021 @ 3:30 pm, I started removing the DUMOND paper from the test area. Some paint came off, but a lot didn't. When I tried to use a plastic putty knife to remove the reside, the wood seemed soft in places & I ended up gouging into some of the wood frame.

    I stopped & decided to reapply SMART STRIP to just the areas where the paint did not come off. That was done @ 6:15 pm on Saturday, June 12, 2021. The next day around 9:30 am, I removed the DUMOND paper from the test strip.....some of the remaining paint came off, but a some didn't. I decided I could not put anymore of this product on my door frame.

    I went to the DUMOND web site & found info stating that SMART STRIP works best for POST-1980 PAINT removal & another, more expensive, DUMOND paint remover product works best for PRE-1980 PPAINT REMOVAL. The reviews on AMAZON for the PRE-1980 DUMMOND PAINT REMOVAL PRODUCT are mixed, so I am going to consult a professional as to what I should do. I have already spent $80 on SMART STRIP + LAMINATED PAPER & don't feel like spending hundreds more when I don't know if the second product will work successfully or not. Because I have opened & used part of this product, I cannot return it. I understand that policy. Had I done more research, I might not be in this situation now!

    My point is: Amazon/Seller should make sure all pertinent info about their product is available on Amazon. In this case it is one paint removal product works best on structures painted during a certain period of years & another works best for painting done during a different time span.

    I DO LIKE THAT BOTH DUMOND PRODUCTS ARE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY TO BOTH ENVIRONMENT & USER AS WELL AS SAFE FOR USING WHEN REMOVING LAYERS OF PAINT, SOME OF WHICH CONTAIN LEAD!!!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars It works but you have to be patient and committed
    Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2023
    It works very well but takes multiple applications depending on how many layers of paint you're removing. I found it takes about 3-4 layers off each application. I had about 5 or 6 layers on my cabinets, the 1st application left a gooey sticky mess and I will admit I was panicking, but I decided to get as much off as I could reapply and try again the next day. I left both applications on for 24 hours with saran wrap and got a good metal scraper, the plastic ones did not work well. I was able to get down to the bare wood within 2 applications. What I don't like is that is does smell, maybe not as harsh as other strippers but it does have a smell and it's not as "safe" as the container makes it sound if you read the label, and it says to use outside with plenty of ventilation, which is not possible in my situation so I set up an air purifier and cracked a window. Overall it gets the job done you just have to see it through and dont panic! Also, I used soap and water in a bowl with steel wool 00 grade to remove any sticky residue.
