Nitromors

[compo]

I have been trying to strip the paint off a Peugeot bike. Years ago a brushing with Nitromors and a half hour wait and you could almost wipe off the paint with a damp cloth. I today bought a new tin of Nitromors and coated the frame, then again after half hour (almost according to the directions). Several hours later the paint hasn't even started bubbling and it seems as hard as when I started. £8 down the drain. I am now looking at getting the job done by powder coaters, it is easier.

My verdict on Nitromors.......Rubbish.

It probably used to contain some nasty solvent that is far too dangerous for you to use nowadays. There are lots of things that are not half as good as they used to be.

Incidentally - tipping it down the drain is probably still illegal.

Victory V's too. I remember when you could just suck a Victory V and breathe on a frame and the paint would come off.

I had an old tin and it ate through Anything in seconds never had. New tin though was horrid stuff to inhale

Compo you are not going mad.

I do a bit of furniture restoration and back in the summer i popped into the local hardwear shop to get some and the owner told me the company had changed the recipie.

Local conspiracy theory is it makes you buy more.

Personally i'm on the hunt for another brand.

Nitromors (with new improved ingredients) is almost as disappointing as one of these...

...almost.

Improved as in Dosent make you grow extra limbs when inhaled

Nitromors has apparently had the stuffing knocked out of it. According to this thread Supadec is the stuff to use. Although Supadec also apparently has a new formula.

You could always try it and report back on your findings

Its biodegradable which means its kind to the environment.

I want it to be nasty to the enviroment im putting it on and strip away 60yrs worth of paint not just lie there and chew the fat.

You need to be a bit careful if you are trying to get paint off aluminium. Caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) and aluminium react together in a quite interesting way.....
