Removing fresh oil based gloss

Hi Flora, No need to strip the paintwork, Just rubdown to a good key and start painting again. James

Hi if you have carpets down they would need to come up, you can get a non toxic stripper but there is still a smell, it is possible to remove just the new paint as the stripper takes paint off layer by layer, once sanded down it would be advisable to give all woodwork a coat of zinsers primer then an Acrylic undercoat and easy flow waterbased gloss. Unfortunately waterbase gloss doesn't have the shine an oil base has but it will dry quick and with no smell. Hope this was helpfull to you.

If you are worried about lead you are best to gently sand the gloss paint you used and then prime it with Zinsser BIN. That will block the fumes from the oil paint and you can use a water-based gloss on top. Non toxic paint strippers are very slow to work and you usually need to do it more than once so it's a bit laborious, and as you said, it could be exposing lead.

Don'will t rub down apply a coat of zinnsser primer 123that will kill the gloss and you can paint anything over the top

Hi the best way to remove oil based gloss is to use a heat gun ,and sand down. Take it back to the wood. Best to take the carpet up first. Hope that helps.
