#1 Refinish Your Interior Wooden Door & Window Frames
Remember when everyone thought it was a great idea to paint all the trim in your house white? How can we forget the eye blinding, really hard to keep clean, white trim as far as the eye can see! Breathe new live into your trim and let that beautiful warm wood shine. Wood tones can give your home that warm welcoming feel and completely change the look of a room in your home. Now there is an easy way to refinish these surfaces and you don't have to be a carpenter to do it. The traditional way is to pull the trim off the wall, take it outside, very carefully strip the surface (that stuff is toxic!), neutralize stripper and let dry, sand surface, apply new finish and let dry completely, nail back in place. It was an all week project and it left your home in shambles during the process. Now there is a product that allows you to strip your interior trim safely in place skipping a bunch of time consuming steps. EZ Strip Paint & Varnish Stripper is an effective, Low VOC/skin safe stripper, that cleans up with just water! Here are the basic steps: Tape off trim, apply EZ Strip, scrape/scrub off finish, let dry, lightly sand, finish and let dry. You can complete a whole room on a weekend for half the cost and hassle!
