A can with a plastic resealable lid works especially well. Using a good quality brush, spread the remover thickly and evenly over the surface. Sprayables are for easy application. Some removers come with a spray bottle or sprayer. These removers are thin enough to spray yet thick enought to cling.
Aerosols are the most convenient and fastest way to apply paint remover.
These removers are sprayed on and create a foamy, clinging layer thick enough to remove several layers of paint. These removers are perfect for smaller jobs and detail work where brush application is difficult. Aerosol paint removers are available almost everywhere conventional removers are sold. These removers generally work slower than more conventional types, but some allow use indoors with good ventilation. These are more expensive, but for people who are sensitive toward harsh chemicals, may offer an excellent choice.
