Having inherited an old Ercol dresser with a dark brown stain and varnish I thought it'd have to go on the bonfire. I picked up some Home Strip at the local hardware store and had a crack at trying to rescue it. The product worked brilliantly. I painted the gel like liquid (which meant there was very little mess) and left it for about 40 minutes. I then used a stainless steal scourer and some warm water to remove the product and the varnish/stain. The brown stain and varnish came off with very little effort. Overall this product was easy to use and produced a fantastic looking piece of furniture. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
