Does have a strong scent, but not unpleasant.
Haven’t had any issues with it on my skin except mild dryness.
Hasn’t damaged anything.
Easy to use.
Works well.
If you have a lot to remove (like you stupidly painted and entire vinyl window frame) it will get messy. The paint gets kind of goopy like it is halfway dried.
I do recommend working with it while still wet, so if you have stubborn parts, spray, let sit for a few minutes, and then give it another spray before you start scrubbing, especially if it is something porous like grout.
The previous owners of our house in their infinite lack of wisdom, bought a paint sprayer to prep the house to sell. They obviously had no idea how to use it so naturally they used it everywhere.
It all looked great at first glance but after living with it a while we noticed tiny specs of paint EVERYWHERE! Window screens, shower stalls, trim, floors, windows… and then my naive self decided I didn’t like the off white window frame, I wanted it bright white to match the chair rails. Well… latex doesn’t work on vinyl (now you know), so it didn’t age well and I am left cleaning up my mess along with that of the previous owners.
In the bathroom, the sprayed paint (courtesy of the previous owners) was all over the tiles and grout, leaving it looking dirty. A simple blade removed it from the tile but the grout was another matter. Soap and water didn’t work. All purpose cleaner didn’t work. Magic Erasers did work but got chewed up super fast!
So, I gave up and started scraping out the grout with the intention of redoing it - and then I stumbled upon this stuff.
I did still regrout the parts I had already scraped out, but these (desaturated) photos are from a different section and as you can see, the paint was removed! You can see the little specs in the one photo, and a lot less in the other one. I still need to go back and do another pass but now I don’t HAVE to regrout if I don’t want to! And it works well on that window frame too!
