"Flow Over" stripping is a process where an item is placed in a large tank and commercial strippers
made for this type of system are pumped over a piece, keeping it wet. The chemicals are recycled
to be used over again. The chemicals are a cold process solution so that no harm is done to the
furniture joints, woods, or veneers. This has replaced the old "dip tanks" that used a lye based chemical that was very harmful to woods. When a piece is stripped using the "Flow Over" system and
washed with a chemical solvent (not water) , it comes out clean, not discolored, and the grain is not
raised. Very little sanding has to be done. Stripping by hand cannot come close and give the results like our system provides.

Below is a desk that was brought to us to be refinished. It had been painted a dark color. The client
wanted the desk to be refinished to a natural finish. This process could not have been achieved unless
the wood was completely cleaned and stripped using our "Flow Over" system.
