i didnt say i could i was told that if i have no clue what the solid is and if i use a rag and denatured alcohol on it that in one scenario if the color comes off on rag its one thing and if it doesnt its something else?

what if the finish is just latex and not acrylic latex what are my options?

after scraping and priming the areas can i apply oil over it or do i have to use another latex?

thanks for the info. what about denatured alcohol on a rag and rub ? have heard that if latex comes off on rag and if not then oil based? is this true?

read where some have used hd -80 and longer dwell time and had good results on acrylics? or is HD-80 mainly for oil based

Hello Hey can anyone tell me the formula for converting square foot to linear feet?

what about stripping and using a solid color stain after if any blemishes to wood grain cracks etc left by the old paint? tidyjet you said you stripped and used a semi solid and no probs guess it all depends on what the wood looks after stripping is done. did you have to do any sanding at all or did the stripper pretty much take care of all the paint? how many layers of paint was it? Dave

rail system is on second level but not getting done just deck itself. looks like it will have to be stripped then repainted then. any thing even new paint will look good on it was an ugly color of green previous owners painted to match the shutters on the house with white railing. wants railing to stay white and railing has no probs with it paint holding good just deterioration to paint on deck in some spots.looks like about 2 or 3 good coats of previous paint on deck itself. anyone have a guesstimate on how many gallons of stripper to loosen that many layers off? i know ill have to goop in on nice n thick with a long knap roller. was thinking of tryin wolmans a/l stripper talked to few other people who said works pretty good and they had no probs cutting through 3-4 layers of paint with it. Think i should go with it or try another stripper? have heard mixed opinions on the citrus strip ad personally have never tried it before? Dave
