<p>[QUOTE="Mill Cove Treasures, post: 298388, member: 60"]That dye, paint or bole is difficult to remove. It could even be milk or casein paint, which, can be removed but, it's a real PIA. Test an area first with paint or varnish stripper. If it doesn't work, it's most likely milk/casein based.</p><p><br /></p><p>Milk or casein can't be removed with normal paint stripper. They sell a product to do it, however, you can make your own out of Arm & Hammer washing soda with either flour or pickling lime. The flour and pickling lime are used to make it into a paste so it will stick to the surface. You have to keep it moist because it will dry out. It may take several tries to get it all off it's milk or casein.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
