Progress!

I had this post in my drafts as Blogger would not let me upload photos or post for the past few weeks. I kept getting an error message pertaining to browser issues. After checking the help section of Google, I found that a LOT of people have had this issue lately. This morning, I decided to update my browser to Google Chrome; and now it works!

My goal this weekend was to clean these four panels


After lathering on the Citristrip with a paint brush and waiting for 30 minutes, I started scrubbing. Then cleaned off all the residue.
It looks so much prettier now! I only have 2 side panels and 2 bottom panels to go before I'm completely done with this side of the room!



I went and stocked up on Citristrip as is seems to be disappearing from my favorite stores. It is no longer at my Lowes or Orchard Supply. Walmart has the small bottle for $13, but I prefer to buy the larger bottle for $21 as it's twice the size. The only place I can get it now is at Home Depot. Hopefully they don't discontinue it as this is my very favorite brand of paint stripper (due to my 5 year old grand-daughter living here). I always save paint stripping for Sundays when she is at her dads house, and then air it out for about 5 hours before she comes home.
The next day, the house still smells all sweet and citrusy.


I discovered the Citristrip Paint Stripper After Wash a few weeks ago and oh my, it saves so much time! I used denatured alcohol or mineral spirits on the other 2 walls and it was so very time consuming! This after wash takes the residue right off. It is also disappearing from stores though. It's no longer at Walmart, Lowes or Home Depot. I bought the last two bottles on the shelf at Orchard Supply today. I go through this little bottle in one day.
