Using the Stripping Knife for Furniture Restoration

When restoring wooden furniture, old paint or varnish may need to be removed before applying a new finish. A stripping knife can help scrape away a coating once it has been softened with a suitable stripping product.

For furniture stripping, the knife can be used alongside Wood Stripper, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow the stripper to work for the recommended time before carefully removing the softened finish.

Use controlled movements and avoid pressing too hard, as excessive force can scratch the wood or damage veneer. Delicate antiques and detailed mouldings may require a gentler approach and a more suitable tool.

Harris Stripping Knife for Decorating and Surface Preparation

As well as furniture restoration, the Harris Ultimate Stripping Knife is designed for stripping tasks such as removing old wallpaper from suitable flat surfaces. It can also help with other appropriate scraping jobs where unwanted material needs to be removed before redecorating.

Always check that the blade and scraping method are suitable for the surface. Take particular care with veneer, soft timber, painted finishes and other easily damaged materials.

How to Care for Your Stripping Knife

After use, clean the blade carefully to remove any residue, following the instructions for the stripping product used. Wash with warm soapy water where appropriate, dry thoroughly and store safely with the blade protected from accidental contact.

Wear suitable protective gloves and eye protection when working with stripping products, and follow all product safety instructions. Handle the knife carefully, as the blade can cause cuts.
