I need to strip a bunch of hinges of years of oil & latex paint. All the strippers I found at ACE are 'super thick cling" which doesn't make a nice dip & strip setup. Anything out there that will do

Well, you've eliminated my answer. What's wrong with MEK? It's not that nasty a chemical. It stinks, but you can set this up in a shed or back porch or something and let it go. What I would do if I w

I'm going to take a different approach here. How about Simple Green to get the oil or grease off first. Then depending on the hinge itself, use a wire wheel or bead blaster for the rest. Of course,

The really nasty (but unfortunately effective too) ingredient isn't MEK (methyl ethyl ketone), it's methylene chloride. Been identified as a potent carcinogen for decades. 3M makes a product called "

I was in the Orange Borg the other day to buy a gallon of regular Jasco extra strength paint stripper. I saw they had Kleen Strip "sprayable" stripper: http://tinyurl.com/63lbef You might give it a t

Another old fashioned way to remove the paint would be to go to the hardware store and get a can of lye and mix up a solution of lye and hot water and soak the hinges in this for a couple of days. Yo

Got any old brake fluid? It'd probably be expensive to buy for just that purpose however. Eric Russell Mebane, NC Login from home, work, school. Anywhere! ____________________________________________

Old brake fluid, as Eric suggested, would do the trick since you're not in a Auto shops that do flushes oughto have enough used stuff to let you take a quart. There are some "safe" aircraft coating r

Oven cleaner is great for removing baked-on layers of dirt and grease, like what covers many old car drivetrain and suspension parts. It definitely removes old paint, and often rather quickly. You ne

After 24 hours, the TSP did a decent job on the latex, fair on the oil. I needed to use steel wool to remove the oil paint and that killed the patina I was hoping to save. Simple green, suggested by

I use brake fluid a lot for paint stripper, but I found it doesn't work on latex paint. I had exactly the same need as the OP, get some paint off some brass hinges. Brake fluid did not touch it. -- R

You know, there are ways to create that patina. Of course, it won't be the actual authentic original patina, but it will look the same and I won't tell. Here's one link: http://www.woodmagazine.com/m
