Meet MAX Strip, a professional-strength gel paint stripper designed to tackle multiple finishes on wood, metal, and more. This 1-gallon formula is built to remove aftermarket paints, latex, polyurethane, shellac, varnish, acrylic, and oil-based coatings with a single application in many cases.

Why choose MAX Strip?

• No methylene chloride or NMP—safer-to-handle chemistry for DIY and contractor users.
• No drip gel formula—control application and minimize mess in busy spaces.
• Low odor and reduced fumes—suitable for use in smaller or confined rooms.
• Versatile performance—effective on a range of coatings while preserving the underlying surface.

How to use

• Shake well before each use to ensure proper consistency and optimal performance.
• Apply to the surface and monitor every 15 minutes to gauge softening and readiness.
• Gently scrape away softened coatings with a putty knife or scraper; reapply if needed.
• Allow surfaces to cool to room temperature before shaking or reusing, as heat can cause temporary separation.

Applications and limits

• DIY projects and professional stripping tasks on wood, metal, concrete, and similar substrates.
• Not designed for deck coatings, factory-finished coatings, or baked-on vehicle paints.

Tips for best results

• Test on a small area first to observe coating response and surface compatibility.
• Wear appropriate gloves and work in a ventilated area for comfort and safety.
