PEEL AWAY® I has been used on numerous lead paint abatement projects for HUD, Capitol Buildings, military installations and other high profile restoration projects. PEEL AWAY® I , an alkaline paste, will remove thirty (30) coats ofpaint or more in a single application and there are NO TOXIC FUMES OR FLAMMABLE SOLVENTS. PEEL AWAY® I is a thick paste that is either trawled or sprayed (specialized equipment) onto the surface being stripped and is covered with a fibrous laminated cover that accompanies our product. This allows the paste to work in a completely sealed environment without any evaporation. When the stripping action is complete (usually an overnight dwell time) in the removal process, the bulk of the paste/paint adheres to the fiber side of the cover for easy collection of the waste and the surface is cleaned with water and neutralized. PEEL AWAY® I is the SAFEST method of removing lead paint since the process is always keeping the paint in a wet or damp state so there is no airborne lead dust. In addition, the lime in PEEL AWAY I, will in most cases, stabilize the lead being removed taking it out of a hazardous waste category in terms of disposal.
