Owatrol Dilunett Water Based Paint Stripper Gel

Owatrol Dilunett offers a solvent and paraffin-free solution for paint stripping, effectively removing oil and alkyd-based paint, varnish, or woodstain. The formula can strip up to 8 layers of finish in just one application. Suitable for various surfaces like wood, metal, and plastic, Dilunett's gel consistency prevents dripping, making it perfect for vertical surfaces and intricate designs.

Simple to apply, Dilunett penetrates even the tiniest crevices and details, softening all layers for effortless and tidy removal. Additionally, it's biodegradable, non-flammable, and safe for use in poorly ventilated or confined spaces.

• Strips up to 8 coats of finish in one application
• Suitable for wood, metal, and plastic surfaces
• Gel consistency prevents running, ideal for vertical surfaces and intricate designs

Remove any loose and flaking paint.

Brush off any physical surface contamination i.e. moss, general dirt etc.

• Apply a thick coat of Dilunett over the whole surface to be stripped. For woods rich in tannins, work large areas in zones to avoid excessive darkening of the wood.
• Allow product to work
• Remove Dilunett and dissolved paint with a stiff nylon scrubbing brush or paint scraper while flushing with water, alternatively use a pressure washer
• After stripping and rinsing. All porous surfaces must be immediately treated while still wet to neutralise the surface.

Always follow manufacturer's instructions found on the tin

A:Dilunett is a solvent-free water-based stripping gel that can be rinsed with water. Easy to use, acts alone and can strip up to 8 layers of paint in one application.

Q: How long does it take to strip the product?

A:This will depend on the type and thickness of coating to be removed. For example, from a few minutes for a stain, to approx 4 hours for up to 8 layers of paint while antifouling is up to 12 hours.

Q: What are the suggested areas of use for Dilunett?

A:Can be used on most surfaces; on wood (some woods such as Oak and Chestnut require more attention before using Dilunett), metal (except Aluminum), plastic, stone, cement etc

Q:How long should I wait before neutralizing the surface?

A:DILUNETT should be neutralized immediately with Net-Trol after rinsing and before it is dry.

Q: Where Dilunett should not be used?

A:Dilunett is not effective for removing certain types of coatings, including 2-pack or baked-on paints, as well as polyurethane paint and varnish. It should not be used on "weak" woods such as veneers, nor on aluminum surfaces.

Q: What should be done if Dilunett darkens the wood?

A: Hardwoods, especially those rich in tannins such as Teak, Oak, Sapele, and Chestnut, can turn dark if they remain in prolonged contact with Dilunett. If this occurs, it is recommended to not allow the wood to dry before using Net-trol to correct the darkening.
