Using paint removal company

[mytriumphcar]

I am thinking of taking "Marilyn's" 4 windows and door surround (which are solid timber) to a paint removal company.

Have started to do one of the windows by hand ( see photo below) using paint stripper but wondered whether taking it to a paint removal company will be better and quicker of course
They charge about $20 per window. I have used this particular company before years ago

Hi Kath

Have a look in the text just above your message . in dark blue print you will see... "Easy strip".... safe lead paint removal".... biodegradable strippers.

Sometimes the answer to your problems may be staring you right in the face.

$20 a window seems cheap enough . But why shell out the $$ when you are perfectly capable of doing it yourself.
dont be in a rush . it is a slow job but you will get there eventually.

Hi
We took the 4 timber windows and door surround to the paint strippers today. They are charging $12.50 per window and $25 per door surround.


We thought we would try it so hopefully will work out ok

i am kind of keen to find out the outcome of this approach ...how did they come out Katheryn (or anyone else that has tried this approach ) ... are you happy with the job that they did and would you recommend that approach?
