  1. Thankyou,…. I will forgive you this time!,…..under the circumstances!, but for everyone else, they must or mustly should! come too us, now they know we exist! you see our wastes are taken in barrels too NSW and buried 20 metres under concrete at a cost of 4-5 000 a time! maybe we could double bag it! and call Australia post? might save us a dollar…too?,…. thankyou for responding, dont forget http://www.dipnstrip.com.au CHEERS, Rob. all the best.

  2. wow looks like a hard job! how much did you spend on products? who guarded your entrance? where did you put the paint waste? did u know dip n strip are the only true “green/organic” strippers in tasmania/AUSTRALIA? otherwise our “regular customer from Bega NSW would be wrong! he has visited us with 24 doors over ten year period, also at dip n strip we have “complimentary” door blockers!!!! we green/ council approved and E.R.S take our paint waste too NSW!, check us out sometime also we have no need too remove glass …… or fittings!

    • Hi Rob

      It is great that we have at our front door step a green way of stripping furniture and doors etc. As we were changing the whole door look w decided to strip it ourselves. We used an infra-red stripper and double bagged the waste. The doorway was boarded up with a sheet of plywood for the short while that it took. The materials were not expensive and we have now got ourselves a unique door.
