Stair treads, such as those manufactured from teak, mahogany, oak, cherry, beech, ash or birch, normally receive a lacquer finish to complement the wood and highlight the natural wood grain. As a focal point in entrance hallways in many homes, stairs attract the immediate attention of visitors meriting a perpetual scuff free perfect lacquered finish. The single most used part of the stairs is undoubtedly the treads – bearing the brunt of regular footfall. Damage to stair treads can be caused by rough soles or stones stuck between sole grips. The latter can leave indelible marks or light scratches that can only be erased with a new coat of stain or lacquer.  Children can inflict this type of damage on stairs through constant use and with scant regard for due care – at which point a revarnish is necessary to restore the treads original integrity. That is not an easy task taking into consideration the unsafe and ineffective  methods traditionally available for removing the worn and tatty lacquer finish. One such method of burning with a blowtorch is not a healthy option nor is another method of using a hazardous solvent which has inherent dangers. Deploying a mechanical sander which produces a lot of dust is not a satisfactory solution either. Painters and decorators have lived with these paint removal methods that proved tedious, time consuming and inefficient. You are looking for a product, a new solution  that will quickly dissolve the varnish on application without damaging the surface and will peel off easily to leave a clean surface ready for a new coat of varnish
