Stripping

Every once in a while I'll think about stripping... the paint from the doors in my apartment that is haha. Sometimes I can't stand seeing the revealing 1/8" layer of the apartment's history without wanting to strip it off. I'm afraid to unhinge the doors though because they didn't used to fit in the frame properly. I had that fixed but I don't trust the ability to re-attach the hinges successfully. Maybe I'll strip it while attached. Probably a good winter time project.

In any case, here's a quick and dirty from Design Sponge on how to strip paint if you so choose to try this yourself. Good to know that there are less toxic stippers like citristrip and peel away. Don't care to kill myself or the environment with toxic fumes.
