<p>The present invention relates to a stripping composition for removing coatings, in particular organic coatings, from metal substrates particularly those which are easily corroded or damaged. More particularly the invention is directed to a method of removing an organic coating, in particular paint, from a substrate comprising a soft metal eg aluminium, magnesium or zinc, which substrate can be easily damaged or etched by the effect of water and a strong alkali. The composition comprises a component which penetrates the coating and swells or solubilizes it; a strong alkali accelerator which breaks down the coating enabling it to be removed and a coupling agent characterised in that the component which penetrates the coating and swells or solubilizes it comprises benzyl alcohol and the coupling agent comprises a glycol, a glycol ether or mixtures thereof. The method comprises stripping a coating from a metal substrate in a stripping bath containing water and a stripping composition of the invention wherein a silicic is introduced into the stripping bath: as part of the stripping composition; as part of a replenishing composition; by addition together with or separately from a strong alkali accelerator using a dis-solution chamber through which the stripping composition is pumped or by dissolving it into rinse water so that water which is carried back into the bath carries the silicic with it.</p> |
