What worked well for me was a heat gun, Then Bahco carbide scrapers, I have the 2” and 1” triangle that Jim Watts turned me onto several years ago, this gets you right down to the quick, then the orbital sander hooked up to the shop vac. I removed them to the shop, it was probably worth the re-bunging to be able to work comfortably at hip level and do a good job without nicking every upright surface around the edges. Note, the 1” triangle scraper is to be used only by adults.

If so what method did you use for stripping? Chemical, sanding, scraper? The video on Jamestown distributor says he scrapes and believes that keeping the scraper sharp, maybe 4 passes before resharpening, is the best and cleanest method. Very little dust, very little wood removed. >From my Android phone -------- Original message -------- From: "wwadjo...@aol.com via CnC-List" <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Date: 10/23/2014 4:02 PM (GMT-05:00) To: Edd Schillay via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List Interior Floor Varnish Did new floor boards for my 36 last winter. West epoxy then 8 coats minwax helmsman. I have used many, and this is as good as any. I used gloss, not slippery if you are wearing shoes.

Of course, I want something that is easy to apply, takes a coat or two to have a award-winning appearance, is durable and something that will last for a decade or more. And since that produce doesn’t exist, I’d like to know what would be the best compromise. The boat's up for the winter, so I’d like to get brushing over the next few weekends.
