Hi,
I’ve just made my first attempt to strip old (1930s) black and white paint from the stairs.
Was a bit concerned about lead and disturbing the paint flakes. Nitromorse (yellow tin) was alright but it took two hours and one tin to strip only two treads (the first two in the photo below).
Just wondering:
1. Is it ok to sand the bottom two stairs, or do I need to strip these back to the wood?
2. Should stripping be this difficult? Is there a better product out there?
Cheers
