Strip B1 combines strong stripping power with process stability for cold removal of coatings from aluminium. Its specialised formulation reduces evaporation and supports long bath life, making it ideal for efficient use in closed industrial systems.
Strip B1 – High performance cold paint stripper based on dichloromethane
Powerful stripping solution for a wide range of coatings on aluminium
Strip B1 is a high quality paint stripper developed for cold removal of various coatings from aluminium. The product is based on methylene chloride (dichloromethane) and contains alkaline activators that enable effective coating breakdown without damaging the aluminium substrate.
An integrated wax layer forms on the bath surface and reduces methylene chloride evaporation, supporting a stable process and longer bath life. Due to its methylene chloride content, Strip B1 must be used in a closed system, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Key features
- Cold stripping at room temperature
No heating required, helping reduce energy and process costs - Effective formulation with alkaline activators
Delivers strong removal of a wide range of coatings - Methylene chloride based (dichloromethane)
A classic and highly effective solvent for industrial paint stripping - Protects aluminium substrates
Maintains base material integrity during treatment - Evaporation reducing wax layer
Forms a film on the bath surface to minimise methylene chloride loss - Designed for closed industrial systems
Supports compliance with legal requirements for methylene chloride containing products
Applications
Strip B1 is suitable for removing multiple coating types from aluminium, including:
- Polyester and epoxy powder coatings
- Industrial liquid paints
- Multi layer systems
The formulation is designed for use in industrial dip baths and closed process installations.
Application and Process Parameters
| Strip B1– Product Properties | Description |
| Product type | Paint stripper, paint remover, stripping agent, cold paint stripper |
| Appearance and odor | Strip B1 is a yellow, clear liquid. |
| Application method | Immersion bath |
| Strip system | Bath make up: Strip B1 is used neat (undiluted). The liquid level can be maintained with Strip B1. If activity decreases, the bath can be boosted with Strip 33 S. |
| Operating temperature | 15 to 40 °C |
| Treatment time | 5 to 60 minutes* depending on paint type |
| Tips | Parts to be stripped should be immersed in Strip B1 until the coating has released. Then rinse the parts with water and, if possible, brush or spray. In some cases high pressure may be required to remove the coating. Strip B1 must be kept free of water at all times. |
