- For multi layered surfaces (5 or more), a second coat of paint and varnish stripper is recommended.

Read and follow the Health & Safety Data Sheets as detailed in the separate MSDS
document. Ensure adequate ventilation at all times, DCM vapours are heavier than air
so extractors should be at low level. Paramose P&V must be shaken well before use
Always apply generous even coats. Do not try to spread the product too far, as this will
result in poor penetration and faster evaporation. Allow Paramose P&V to do its work
Do not use in confined spaces. Do not try to remove too quickly. Never let the surface
become too dry during treatment
