The items are dipped in a warm bath of caustic soda for 45 minutes. Dipped a few times of paint
some of the items may need to be dipped few times at a shorter intervals to remove the maximum
amount of paint.
Once the dipping process is completed the items are ready to be washed .
We remove the residue of any paint or build up materials with a power wash until the items are fully clean and ready to be delivered back to our customers.
We apply the product to neutralise the item for safety purposes and to minimise the smell of caustic soda post dipping.
The items that require further preparation are dried in a separate room.
Once they are completely dry we start sanding them down by hand to achieve a smooth surface,
ready for the finishing touches .
The items that are fully restored will have a finishing product applied to them.
Our finishing products are wax and oil .This is agreed with our customers depending on the
desired shades and colours .
* Minimum charge for orders of one item is £30.00 and £30.00 collection and delivery service. * Items that have water based paint cannot be stripped by dipping ,they will have to be hand stripped and different price will apply -please take a look at the price list section. * Glass paneled doors and items can be dipped but there is a small chance that they may crack due to the nature of the stripping process. However we do take great care and more time when working with glass items and 9 out of 10 do turn out absolutely fine.
