How can I remove varnish from wooden deck chairs?

To answer the question – How can I remove varnish from wooden deck chairs? –  is to provide a fail safe method of doing so that does not really exist – at least up to the recent development of a product that fits the bill perfectly. There is a process or a number of procedures for removing varnish that have traditionally been laborious, time consuming, unsafe and generally less than effective. Trade painters remind us of the painstaking work of removing varnish from wooden deckchairs and how it falls short on both the technical and safety aspects. A frequently used means of removing paint is the heat treatment option. Deploying a blowtorch is a difficult process to control with overconcentration of focused heat on one spot causing scorching and even burning, producing eye stinging smoke and lung wrenching fumes. Prolonged exposure can cause permanent damage to the respiratory system. Use of Solvents  which is a harsh method can produce noxious vapours and fumes that can also burn, sting eyes and cause respiratory problems. Mechanical means such as sanding, both manual and electrical, produces dust clouds which can cause breathing problems and sore eyes. None are either safe or efficient and require more than one application. The whole process of removing varnish has been unclear and inefficient until now, with the discovery of a revolutionary method that includes all the positive aspects of an excellent varnish removal solution.
