I’m planning on using this on trim. Didn’t think before starting to paint. But I finished around a few doors and down my hallway just to have the paint start peeling off pretty much right after I finished. I guess that’s what I get trying to cut corners and not prep. Now I’m going to have to remove the paint I applied use this liquid sander and then repaint.

Taking the gloss off my acoustic guitar will really bring its tone to life, I was nervous about sanding off the sun burst stain this video is really helpful thank you

Yes, it's a great product and we saved hours using it.

The two sides kind of remind me of when I go for an eye exam, and the doctor asks, "Which is better, this one....or this one?" And they always look identical. Ha! I appreciate the effort, though. The paint came off, so I believe you when you say the gloss did too. I'm going to definitely use this stuff to get rid of gloss on my kitchen cabinets that is driving me nuts. Thanks!

Couldnt see the gloss difference but the amount of paint on the rag was the tell tale item! Thanks!

Great video! We are repainting the trim in our house. My husband has repainted in the past and used only this product to prep. While it helped the new paint to adhere well, the trim had dings and imperfections for the first time it was painted so repainting over it only made them look worse. It is important to point out that this product will remove the gloss from the wood but will not remove any imperfections that are already there. In other words, if there are brush marks, paint runs or any other flaws, you will still need to sand! Thank you.

I used it last week and it worked..thanks!

Just finished my kitchen cabinets using liquid sandpaper. I applied it to my oak cabinets with a sponge, and allowed it to sit until it dried. I then reapplied it two more times, until I could see that the gloss on the cabinets was fading. Following this process, I took a sanding block, and roughed up areas that appeared a bit glossy. I then proceeded to painted my cabinets, using Behr premium, water-based stain & ploy. The color I used was satin, espresso B6212. Although the entire process was a lot of work, it was better than removing the cabinets and sanding. Following my cabinet makeover, I redid my claw foot, oak kitchen table using the same process, which only took me one afternoon. I'd recommend this product VS other time consuming methods.

That’s a great question. Are your cabinets laminate? I have seen some reviews of people who claim it worked on these and other types of surfaces.

Any idea if we can use this on the flaking paint, and if we'll need to do a 2nd "coat" ? Tx again.

Pam, unfortunately, I don't this this product will work for laminate-type surfaces. You could try applying another coat to a small area of the surface to see what happens, but if it doesn't work I would recommend using 150-220 grit sandpaper to sand the laminate because it’s the BEST way to get the primer and paint to adhere properly. Hope this helps out. Thanks for watching my tutorial!

Will doing this take off water gloss mark?? Thank you. @Handy Hudsonnite

I usually paint over the furniture with chalk paint. I clean it first with Krudcutter for paint. That is enough. With this piece, I only want to darken the wooden finish by putting on a dark gel stain with a brush and then wiping it down with shop towels. I don't want to paint it. I meant to buy denatured alcohol but picked up the liquid sandpaper by mistake. Since I have to roughen up the surface lightly with sandpaper after the alcohol anyhow, I thought this might be a great shortcut. Any thoughts?

If you're looking to completely remove the paint from those surfaces you'll need to also sand them as this product is only for removing gloss not the entire painted layer. Thanks for watching!

I had my bathroom walls finished in a leather look. A topcoat of satin polyurethane was applied over to seal the paint. However, even though it is a satin, the walls are super shiny.

Thanks for your question. That's an interesting situation. I can't guarantee that applying this would not effect the underlying satin paint. It's hard to control how far it would penetrate.

@HandyHudsonite

Sorry to hear that, Carl. Oil-based paints can tend to be a lot harder to deal with. Is it a rougher texture you’re dealing with? If so, the deglosser might have a harder time getting the gloss off all aspects of the surface. How much were you applying? How long did you leave it on? Just trying to get a sense of your situation.

I am a professional painter/refinisher and I've been in. The industry for 17 years. This product is trash. Yes, it will remove some gloss on the finish but that DOES NOT mean that you're getting a sound substrate that will provide any bond and it is not a good su substitute for mechanical sanding to achieve adhesion. Don't screw up your project, take the time to do it right.
