Anyone else notice how low the handles seem? I guess when the door is 8’ tall 😉 and the house is built in 1860… Quite a few doors had been painted over the years and our goal has been to bring them back to the original wood. We estimate about 4-5 layers of paint over the 100+ years The @dumondinc Smart Strip has been our absolute favorite to use! Works quickly, doesn’t smell like the others and as you can see - makes a dramatic difference! And Dumond if you are listening - we’d love love love to work with you! 😉❤️ We use - Smart Strip, plastic wrap, small copper brushes, and a stiff putty knife for this job. Still have one more go round and lots of additional patience and then we’ll probably just do a clear coat. The wood is very old Douglas Fir and original to the house. So gorgeous! This has been the best combination of paint remover so far! After this will be to finish the bathroom door. Coming soon! Please share - we need to keep these beautiful old homes in the limelight! If you have any questions, let us know! Amazing community that loves old homes like we do ❤️❤️
