New paint stripping product enhances
Indestructible Paint’s performance
and environmental credentials
The move towards more
environmentally-friendly
products, which feature
increasingly from specialist
performance coatings
manufacturer, Indestructible
Paint Ltd., is now being
further demonstrated with
key developments to its
range of paint strippers.
The Birmingham-based
company’s IPStrip 500
product is the latest
example, delivering a
range of performance and
environmental benefi ts.

“IPStrip 500 addresses the increasing
restrictions on the supply and use of paint
strippers that contain the hazardous
substance ‘dichloromethane’ (DCM) which,
in Europe, requires training to a professional
level before use,” says Brian Norton,
Indestructible Paint’s Managing Director.
“The new stripper is the result of dedicated
analysis and testing by our research and
development facility and has already proven
its performance suitability in a range of test
applications, particularly in the aerospace
sector. As with the vast majority of our
coatings, it is designed to offer advantages
to users both at home and overseas.”
The gel-based paint stripper is ideal for
brush application, particularly where
immersion is either cost-ineffective or
impractical. Non-toxic and biodegradable,
it is characterised by low VOC emissions
and is non-ozone depletive.
“A long list of paint coatings – from
urethanes and latex paints to alkyd paints,
varnish and most twin-pack epoxy coatings
– can be effectively treated with IPStrip
500,” continues Brian Norton. “It is suitable
for a range of substrates including steel,
aluminium and die-cast metals as well as
a number of plastics and composites.”
He also points out that, because IPStrip 500
achieves deep penetration, it is well suited
to the removal of multiple layers during a
single operation, enhancing both its
practicality and cost efficiency.
As with all its products, Indestructible Paint
has also paid close attention to its customers’
differing order requirements for this latest
paint stripping innovation. IPStrip 500 is
available in a choice of containers – from
25 to 1000 litres capacity – and, moreover,
requires no additional health and safety
considerations to be accommodated during
transportation.
“Our well-established success has always
been based on responding to the needs
of specific sectors within the paint and
performance coatings industry,” concludes
Brian Norton. “IPStrip 500 is an excellent
example of where this results in a product
that delivers both performance and
cost efficiency gains whilst also meeting
ever more stringent environmental
considerations.”
