Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper 1280 is also safe to use on brick, stone, concrete, marble, finely detailed cabinetry, as well as plaster and wood moldings. Do not use on rubber, linoleum, plastics, or sheet rock. PREPARATION Be certain to cover any area not being stripped with a plastic drop cloth and masking tape. Take extra precautions when spraying to control overspray from getting on adjoining surfaces. IMPORTANT: To determine acceptability, before using Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper 1280, be certain to do a TEST PATCH AREA of the surface to be stripped. Apply Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper 1280 with a brush at 3 different thicknesses between 15 and 30 mils (381-762 µ). Periodically test these areas for the correct dwell time for removal over a 1/2 to 6 hour period and longer if very heavily coated. The more coats of paint the longer it will need to dwell. Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper 1280 will stay wet and active during the entire test period. Some coatings, like moisture cures and two-part urethanes, will take longer to thoroughly soften. Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper 1280 will stay wet and active for 24 hours or more. CLEANUP Cleanup all areas with soap and water. Best results with Sea Hawk Marine Paint Stripper 1280 will be achieved when used at temperatures between 60°F and 80°F (15.5°-26.6°C).
