architects as the only appropriate solution for
paint removal, where damage to the surface or
risk to the environment is an issue. The chemicals

BEFORE
The original, authentic Peel Away ® range is now
available exclusively through Barrettine Products
Ltd and approved Trade stockists.
The Peel Away ® paint removal system is designed
for the complete removal of accumulated layers
of paint with up to 32 coats of paint removed
in one application. Use will not damage profiles
or other surfaces where multi-layers of paint
are removed. Peel Away ® is available in two
different formulations; Peel Away ® 1 and Peel
Away ® 7. Both are Methylene Chloride free
(Dichloromethane).
The Peel Away ® poultice paint removal system
was first developed in 1981 to deal effectively
with the problems associated with the removal
of multiple layers of old lead-based paint, where
burning, scraping or sanding would allow lead
particles to escape into the environment with the
associated health risks caused by such practices.
The stripping compound is formulated to turn the
lead into lead hydroxide within the paste, so that
it can be safely disposed of without endangering
the environment or user.
The system is designed to work with the special
Peel Away ® poultice cover supplied which allows
the user to extend the time available so the
stripping process can be as complete as possible.
This is especially useful where crevices and profiles
have allowed the build-up of several times the
thickness of the paint compared to flat surfaces.
The system will remove paint from many exterior
and interior architectural surfaces, including
stone, cement, brickwork, plaster walls and
ceilings, plain and ornate fibrous plaster cornices,
plain and carved or turned woodwork, plain and
cast metal work. Automobile, aircraft and marine
coatings are also efficiently stripped with the Peel
Away ® system.
The Peel Away ® poultice paint removal system has
been used for very many high profile restoration
projects all over the world. In the UK these have
included railings and interiors at The British
Museum, ornate plaster ceilings at Greenwich
Palace, ironwork on the London Underground
and delicate panelling at the Victoria and Albert
Museum. The system is frequently specified by
