Removing Poly

Does anyone know of anything other than elbow grease and scraper that will remove poly? I haven't seen a paint remover that will touch it.

I can well imagine that the alcohol-based strippers won't do anything to it. Have you tried one of the methylene chloride based strippers, like ZipStrip?

60 grit on a ROS seems to cut through it reasonably quickly. Less elbow grease anyway.

Aircraft-type stripper with methylene chloride is the only type that really touches that shi^H^Htuff, Fred. Now you know just 1 of the -many- reasons I dislike that polyurinestain stuff.
