How to remove paint?
Our door stripping and Paint removing process removes years of paint and varnish, restoring the natural beauty of wood. Each door is carefully dipped, neutralizaed, cleaned and hand sanded to ensure a smooth, fresh finish ready for finishing.
Step 1
Dipping and Re-Dipping
The process begins with a caustic solution dip to strip away multiple layers of paint and finish. If needed, we repeat the process to ensure all paint is thoroughly removed.
Step 2
High pressure wash
After we strip your doors, we will wash them with hot water under high pressure, which gives the wood a new clean finish.
Step 3
Naturalization
Neutralizing a door after stripping is an important step to remove any remaining chemicals.
Step 4
Drying and sanding
The stripped door is dried in a room with a dehumidifier to prevent warping, then hand-sanded to smooth the wood and remove any silicone, glue, fillers, or congealed paint from corners and moldings.
Step 5
Revealing Natural Beauty
The meticulous process uncovers the natural grain and color of wood, often hidden under years of paint. The results can be stunning, showcasing the wood’s unique patterns and texture.
