Any tips on how to remove it from wood. I'm not worried about the finish, I just can't get it up, & when I do, in only goes 4" to the break.

We really haven't managed to get all of it off yet. We used various grades of sandpaper and sanded the bejesus out of the door jam, but we gave up for bit because I was going crazy. When we finish doing that, we'll have to repaint of course. My husband also thinks paint remover might work as well but we haven't tried it yet. Mostly, I've been putting the whole thing off.

I only used the pet sticky paper on wicker and on upholstered furniture. There was no problem with the wicker. The double sticky tape is wonderful as a deterent. Margaret

Next time, you might want to put strips of one of those highly advertised "Does not leave any glue on walls etc" products first...THEN put the Sticky paws on THAT.

If you have a piece of leftover flooring try the Goo B Gone on it Another suggestion is to go to Home Depot and inquire I only used the only used the Sticky Paws on fabriccIt did not work any better on fabric

HiSince you are not worried about the finish, you may try Goo Be Gone. It can be purchased almost anywhere. It may not even do any damage to the surface either.

If you're patient and leave the stuff alone, paint and varnish comes off in sheets. It'll bubble out of bevels and carved areas. I'd also stay away from a wire brush, simply because the wood becomes soft from moisture. If you leave it on long enough, you only need a plastic scraper to squeegie the stuff off, and a toothpick maybe to pick it out of the harder to reach areas. I love this tuff. I'm stripping 3 cabinet doors, a drawer, and one entire cabinet as we speak, in my master bedroom, in front of the TV. Love it.

Had same thing first off. Loosen everything, pull out top shaft all the way to the end. It does seem to stick the first time and may break but it won't.

Very hard wood that is not dry will take some major arm power but it can be done. If you dry the wood the crack very fast. I used this on wood that were over 20'' in diameter. Larger ones you have to split them in quarters

Hi Nana. Stubborn little thing isn't it? When I first tried it, I thought " Wow! This thing ain't right!", but it's just made that way. I assume that's because the assembly has a slight spring pressure that keeps it from coming apart before you're ready. There are two small "nubs" on the shaft of the orange plastic assembly that prevent the thing from just coming apart. You need to exert a little more force and it comes right out. I wouldn't use pliers or a screwdriver...well maybe a screwdriver (extra vodka please !)... but not a mechanical device. I hope this helps you out. ( It seems to come out easier each consecutive time.) Have a great day. Tony

You could but it might damage the finish on the wood. Try it out in the corner. You need to soak it into a paper towel and leave it on for about five minutes. If you change the soak time you would get different removal. Might just work.

Turn it upside dow and place your foot into the handle. push down really hard on the blade and you should here a snap and then it will be sturdier. This should solve the problem. Feel free to contact me again if you still can't get it.

i recall forcing it out from below with great pressure, but I'd advise against doing that. I was never able to get it fully back in and then the wood case cracked along one side. I wrote a negative review and would not again buy this product. If you plan to keep it, keep your knives clean and insert them without a thought to removing the rods.

What kind of paint? Be sure to adjust the tip depth - you may have to loosen it. I had the same problem on the first couple of tries before I found the right height.

The directions are a little wrong. Take your time ... sort out everything first .... loose assembly first ... then rebuild and glue. Get your own, store bought wood clue. Good luck ... it will take time.

Guy,What happens is you have a throttle that once you place a piece on the rail, moves slowly, with more force pushing the wood toward a steel triangle that splits the wood. I use the slow speed for larger pieces or pieces with knots. The throttle can also be moved to a higher speed which I use to split smaller, softer pieces.This works very well, and while if you have a larger piece you will need to take off bits and smaller hunks before it will split, I have yet to meet a piece of wood that can beat it!Good luck!Matt

You know what, I haven't tried to do it that way yet. I've had it well over 2 years now and I've always used it a shown in the pic. I will try when I get home this evening. Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

Pick an edge and pry it slowly off...it kinda hurts fingers a bit..better tight than loose..good luck.

Can you see up into your chiminny? How long have you burned in it? Last time it was swept clean? Are you only burning cured/dry wood?If you have not had it cleaned by a pro for years.. now might be maybe that time? I bought a brush and rods to do mine myself.Also, is it a fireplace or a woodstove?

Hi there, it seems to have a nice hard finish, though you could probably sand it down to the wood. It is really a handsome, piece, and I am glad we got it.

I waited 24 hrs for it to soak in. Then I used a wood stripper on it because mine was sticky. Then I used odorless mineral spirits to clean up the residual wood stripper, then I washed all that w/denatured alcohol and let that dry until there was no sign of wetness on the wood (48 hrs). Also, to make sure the bugs were gone (they were) and then put a finish on it. The stuff works and u can paint after it but the wood has to be clean.

Try spraying it liberally and then place paper towels on top and let it sit for a few hours. See if that helps. I also use a scraper and anything left comes right off.
