How do I strip paint off furniture without gouging the wood?
| Layer | Tool | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Topcoat paint | Chemical stripper, 20-30 minutes, then a card scraper | Sanding clogs and burnishes the surface |
| Old varnish | Stripper or a heat gun on low | Heat gun scorches and lifts veneer |
| Paint in carvings | Stiff nylon brush plus stripper | A wire brush raises the grain |
| Residue in the grain | Denatured alcohol wipe, then 220 grit by hand | Water raises the grain |
| Metal hardware | Remove it first, clean separately | Stripper stains brass |
Two hard rules: test for lead paint on anything pre-1980 before you sand or heat it, and keep carbide burrs and routers away from painted timber. Burrs are for metal; on wood they tear rather than cut.
Veneer: strip with chemicals only. A scraper angled more than about 30 degrees will lift a veneer layer and there is no repair short of re-veneering.
