I am currently using a hot air gun to strip paint from wooden staircase and skirting boards. Is this the best/quickest method or is using a paint stripping solution better?

There are advantages and disadvantages with both.
I use a hot air gun but you have to be very careful as it’s easy to burn wood especially in those “awkward to get to places”. The best solution is the gun (but don’t go too carried away) plus a chemical stripper for the nooks and crannies. Don’t be surprised if you need a couple of passes with the chemicals. And don’t forget to invest in a decent paint scraper.
Paint stripper used to be good, nower days you can drink it
Don’t use both at once unless you’re planning on a lung transplant.I am currently using a hot air gun to strip paint from wooden staircase and skirting boards. Is this the best/quickest method or is using a paint stripping solution better?

That sounds a lot more interesting, vuk. The wife things I can DIY when a really can’t.@Tigerjones
why not just hire someone to do this and you go have fun with a hot stripper and paint gun?
