stripping, paint stripping from banister, is there a easy way.
I'd seriously consider pricing up new spindles. This could be a really horrible job- long, dusty and if using Nitromors, "uncomfortable". Seriously, price your time and pain against some new bits of wood.
Don't forget if your house is old and your stripping paint; be careful its not lead based! ive stripped my banister down of victorian terrace and although im not convinced they have been there that long they have come up nicely. Can i just put some teak oil on it to protect it?
