Voted – DIYweek Decorating Product of the Year Gold Award winner! Barrettine Panther Paint Stripper will also strip metallised paint. Because of its versatility Panther is also good for metal and plastics. We do however, advise a test on an inconspicuous patch before progressing with a larger area. Take care to protect skin, eyes and surrounding areas.
Application tips: apply by dabbing onto the surface with a brush. Wait until you see the top layer of paint start to blister. This should take around 10 to 15 minutes. Once blisters have formed, apply more product, rubbing well into the blisters. Allow a further 15 to 30 minutes before removing with a shavehook or Paint Scraper. A wire brush may be required for awkward areas. If you have any questions or require any further assistance, please contact us on 01942 884122 or email sales@palatinepaints.co.uk
Optimum working conditions between 5 -25oC, avoid direct sunlight.
Shake container before use.
Protect all close areas not being stripped with suitable sheeting.
Light scoring of the coating surface may enhance performance on some coatings, but do not sand if some layers are believed to contain lead (pre 1960
paints).
Pour a quantity of the product into a suitable container (e.g glass jar), and replace cap.
Apply by brush, add a liberal quantity of product by dabbing onto the coating surface and allow to blister (often occurs within 10-15 minutes), then
apply additional product rubbing well into the formed blisters, allow to penetrate for additional 15-30 minutes before trying to remove a small area
using a shavehook or stripping knife.
Use a stiff-bristled brush for awkward areas. Only apply to an area less than 1⁄2 metre square at a time.
Collect removed waste on e.g. newspaper and allow to dry for a couple of hours before disposing via appropriate waste disposal route. Some local
authorities have special facilities for disposing of waste coatings/paints.
Re-apply as necessary to remove all remaining coatings.
Wipe the surface clean with Barrettine White Spirit or Methylated spirits. Water can be used but it may raise the grain on certain wood substrates.
Allow to dry. Finally rub with fine sandpaper or a stainless steel pad before redecorating.
Remove as much product as possible from equipment before washing them with warm soapy water.
Do not empty product into drains or watercourses.
Caution: Highly Flammable
Ensure working areas are well ventilated at all times. Poor ventilation could allow the build-up of explosive vapours/ mixtures. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as chemical resistant gloves, overalls and eye/ face protection to protect against splashes. If in doubt speak, to your PPE supplier and show them this label/product, or call us for further advice. Do not use near naked flames or in conjunction with a hot air guns or blow torches. Do not smoke. Ensure the lid is secure and store upright in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight and extremes of temperature. Lead Paints:
Special precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead.
Q: What is the best thing to strip paint with?
To strip paint effectively, it’s best to use a paint remover designed for the specific type of paint and surface. We offer several excellent products for this purpose:
1. Paint Panther Paint & Varnish Remover:
This is a fast-acting, viscous gel that adheres well to vertical and awkward surfaces, making it ideal for stripping multiple layers of paint, including metallised finishes. It’s effective on both oil and water-based paints and varnishes.
2. Peelaway 1 & Peelaway 7:
* Peelaway 1 is perfect for older, lead-based paints often found in pre-1972 buildings.
* Peelaway 7 is designed for more modern paints and varnishes and does not require neutralising after use. Both products can strip multiple layers in a single application and are safe for various surfaces, including wood, brick, stone, and metals.
These products are trusted by professionals for their effectiveness and ease of use.
Q: What does a paint stripper do?
A: A paint stripper is a chemical product used to remove paint, varnish, or other finishes from surfaces. It works by breaking down the bond between the paint and the substrate, making it easier to scrape or wash off the old coating. We offer high-quality paint strippers that are effective at removing various types of finishes while being easy to apply. For example, Barrettine Paint Panther is a fast-acting, non-drip formulation ideal for vertical surfaces and detailed areas.
Q: What is the Quickest Way to Strip Paint?
A: The quickest way to strip paint is by using Barrettine Paint Panther. This highly effective paint and varnish remover has a viscous gel consistency that adheres to vertical surfaces, allowing for easy application in harder-to-reach areas. It can strip multiple layers of paint in just six minutes, breaking down and curling the paint for effortless removal.
Q: What is the Best Thing to Strip Paint With?
A: The best product for stripping paint is also Barrettine Paint Panther due to its fast-acting formula and ease of use. It is ideal for removing various types of coatings, including oil and water-based paints, and is free from methylene chloride, highlighting its safety for users. For stripping more layers, Peelaway products are also highly effective, especially for thicker coatings.

Arrived in good time during ‘lockdown’. Used on a motorcycle restoration project, worked really well, tougher areas needed more time and patience. Would have been five stars but shipping was£8.50 (plus VAT) for UK delivery. Good product though.
