Safely Strip Multiple Layers in One Step with Soy Power

Revolutionize your large-scale restoration projects with Blue Bear® 600GL Soy Gel™ Coatings Remover. A longtime favorite of professional contractors and restoration experts, this 1-gallon supply provides the volume needed to tackle decks, floors, and siding without running dry. Made with 100% American-grown soybeans, 600GL utilizes a unique molecular bond-breaking technology that effectively removes topical sealers, acrylics, enamels, urethanes, latex, and even some epoxies. Unlike traditional petroleum-based strippers that rely on hazardous methylene chloride, this low-odor, non-caustic formula is biodegradable and safe for use indoors or outdoors.

The defining feature of Soy Gel is its ability to cling to vertical surfaces and encapsulate coatings. It migrates through multiple layers of paint or finish down to the substrate—whether it be wood, metal, brick, or concrete—allowing you to scrape away years of buildup in a single pass. This encapsulation process makes it particularly effective and safe for removing lead-based paint, as it traps hazardous lead particles within the gel, preventing airborne dust. With a coverage rate that is typically three times greater than traditional removers, this gallon jug covers approximately 125 square feet on horizontal surfaces, making it a cost-effective solution for serious renovations.

Pro-Tip: The biggest mistake users make with Soy Gel is applying it too thin. It needs thickness to stay wet and active! Apply a generous layer (think of icing a cake) and let it sit. For tough projects with many layers of paint, cover the wet gel with thin plastic sheeting (like a cheap drop cloth or trash bag). This prevents evaporation and allows the gel to work overnight, penetrating deep into the substrate for effortless removal the next day.
