Back to bare timber
I have several casement windows and 5 pairs of french doors that I would like to strip back to bare timber for staining. They all seem to be Silky Oak so can not really get stuck in with a scraper. I have tried using a product called Coopers (from NZ I think), but does not seem to make much impression on 80 odd years of paint. Most successful has been a heat gun, but when I am getting near the timber there seems to be a coating that goes tarry when I put the heat on it and does not lift off the timber. Any suggestions?
