Earlex Wallpaper Steam Stripper

Product Information

Also the cable from machine to socket could possibly do with being a bit longer - wasn't an issue for me as plenty of sockets, but might be otherwise. I bought this Stripper mainly to remove the build up of ("It does what it says on the tin") varnish from my Cedar gate and fence, it did this OK by blistering the varnish and enabling it to be peeled off, I have used these gadgets in the past for removing vinyl wall paper and Artex and they work very well, what I didn't know and was a bonus is that they also could be used for sterilising soil so very useful in the greenhouse.

The Earlex wallpaper stripper helps you strip wallpaper without the use of chemicals making it the Eco-friendly choice for re-decorating. All Earlex wallpaper strippers have a cool to touch hose, over-pressure safety valve, anti-discharge valve and anti-implosion valve designed for your safety. Some mention that it's really good quality, the build is basic, but very effective, and it delivers good steam. The steam plate, cable and hose are designed to pack away neatly making it compact and easy to move from job to job. Once the heating element has boiled the water the steam passes through a cool to touch hose and comes out the steam plate.One of Earlex'smost popular kits which is perfect for fast and simple removal of wall coverings, from wallpaper to Artex. It does have a smaller reservoir than other items, however that is due to its small size and it makes it very easy and lightweight to use in tighter areas so I do not see this as being a problem.

Some mention that it takes a lot of water, so they aren't filling it up all the time, and that it heats up quickly. When the steam plate is held against the wall, steam penetrates the paper, which saturates the backing and partially dissolves the old wallpaper paste releasing the old paper from the wall or ceiling quickly and easily.The Earlex SS125UKP is fitted with a powerful 2000 watt element that heats the water more quickly so that it will save energy and cost. Previous tenants had over painted some paper that just wouldn’t come off it was wielded you the wall. Some mention that it works well, doesn't take long to heat up, and does the job quickly and effectively. After filling you will have to wait for 12 minutes for the water to fully steam after which you're ready to go. This wallpaper steamer has a large 4 litre water capacity container, allowing up to 70 minutes of useage time, thus reducing the number of times that it has to be filled up.
