Once you have everything gathered that you will need to start applying the ChimneyRx Paint N Peel Fireplace Cleaner, you will want to start getting the area taped off covering any areas that you do not want to be treated with the ChimneyRx Paint N Peel Fireplace Cleaner. So for this step you will want to use your blue painters tape. You are going to mask of areas like your fireplace doors, any type of trim, vents, and your mantel. The next step in this process is going to be to give the face of the fireplace a good dusting. This is going to help remove any of the access dust so that the Paint N Peel fireplace cleaner can get a good grip on the porous surface of the masonry material. The last step before painting on the fireplace cleaner is going to be to lay down a drop cloth to protect your hearth or flooring in front of your fireplace.
Step 2: Paint It
Now before your begin to apply the ChimneyRx Paint N Peel Fireplace Cleaner you will want to give it a good heavy stir. Use the included bristle paint brush to begin applying the cleaner to the face of your fireplace, if you prefer you may also use a heavy nap roller for the application. You will want to get a lot on your brush because it is best that you apply a 1/8 inch to a 3/16 inch layer on your fireplace surface that you are cleaning. When applied thicker it will allow you to easily peel it off without tearing.
Tip: Do not worry if you accidentally drip some of the paint N peel, it will wash off with some warm soapy water and a rag.
Step 2: Let It Dry
When you are all finished painting on the ChimneyRx Paint N Peel Fireplace Cleaner it is time to just let it dry. The drying time can take anywhere from 6-12 hours depending on how warm your home is, and how much moisture is in your home as well. You will know when the product is dry because it will have a dry touch to turning a grey/green color and will also become almost like an elastic rubber. We let our paint N peel dry all night long and it is now the grey/green color so we know it is completely dry.
Step 3: Peel It Off
So now all we have to do is peel it off to see the results. It is good to start on the edge peeling the whole edge up just a bit so that you can get as good of a grip as possible to peel it off in large chunks instead of a bunch of tiny pieces. This will help avoid making a larger mess than necessary. There will most likely be few small pieces in the joints where the surface and trim meet that you will have to go back to pull off. When you are peeling the fireplace cleaner off look at the back side, you will be able to see the dirt and grime that it has pulled off of the face of your fireplace. The Paint N Peel Fireplace Cleaner gets into all of the pores in the material and attaches to the dirt particles so when it dries they will be removed right along with the Paint N Peel Fireplace Cleaner.
