Hi,
I am stripping wood all through out my house, and have found that under 1 or 2 coats of paint there is a nice finish already on the wood.
The heat gun is doing a great job of getting most of the paint off, but I can't avoid leaving some smears and spots here and there.
My question is: will turpentine, lacquer thinner, or anything of the like remove the small smears and spots of paint, but keep the existing stain and finish intact? I want to avoid the hassle of sanding and restaining, and the finish is completely clean of paint in some parts, so I thought this might be a good option.
Thanks for your advice.
Ryan
