Description

Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked) is a safe, mild and effective wood coating and paint stripper. It is suitable for removing multiple layers of most commonly used wood coatings such as latex paints, stains, varnishes, linseed oils, acrylics and other film forming coatings.

It’s also effective at removing coatings from metal, brick and masonry surfaces.

It’s the smart alternative to conventional strippers that use dangerous chemicals such as methylene chloride, NMP etc.

Always patch test Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked) before use.

• Safe and easy way to strip
• Remove multiple layers with one application
• User friendly and biodegradable

Unlike bleach, Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked) is not considered a strong defoliant, however, we recommend using absorbent drop cloths to protect delicate and/or adjacent vegetation and surfaces.

For best results use Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked) as supplied and stir or shake it well before use.

Application

Before you begin, note the hazards and precautions on this website and the can labelling, and ensure that you use the correct safety equipment as detailed in the Safety Data Sheet.

Apply Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked) evenly with a brush to dry wood, rubbing into the grain. Reaction time is approx. 30-60mins. Keep area wet by applying more Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked). Test periodically with a paint scraper to determine when the old coat is stripping cleanly of the timber. When this happens the stripped surface is ready for rinsing.

Removal

Once Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked) has cleaned the timber, it must be power rinsed off thoroughly. For best results, power rinse with a high-pressure washer set to under 750 p.s.i. (50 bar), with a fan jet pattern to avoid damage to the wood fibre.

Clean from the lowest point and work upwards methodically. ALWAYS clean off with a water jet that produces a “putty knife” shaped fan that is 40–50mm wide about 100mm out from jet. Adopt a continuous “mowing action” working with power water fan-jet 100mm from the face of the substrate. DO NOT use “turbojets” on timber.

If the stripped timber looks dull after cleaning, apply Cutek Restore (Proclean) while surface is still wet, wait 30 minutes and re rinse. This will brighten the stripped timber and enhance the grain.

CAUTION must be used when cleaning soft timber to reduce the pressure and avoid damaging the sapwood. The longer that Cutek Quick Clean is left on the substrate, the greater the rinse time required. Additionally, certain types of wood surfaces may leave a raised grain effect after stripping is completed. Sanding or poly pad scrubbing may be required to smooth out this condition.

Recoating with Cutek

Following the restoration of the timber with Cutek Wood Stripper (formerly CD33 Naked), it is important to complete the restoration process by coating the timber with an appropriate Cutek wood protection oil, following the procedure detailed in this website.

Failure to treat the wood after restoration will result in the weathering process occurring more rapidly than it took prior to restoration.

Coverage

Spreading rate is approximately 1 litre of stripper per 3 m2 of surface area to be stripped.
