I've never tried it on that, but I would be willing to bet that it would. It seems to work on just about everything.

This is great stuff but I never tried it on soot. Personally, I doubt it. Soot is unique.

I don't really know. I know it says it get rid of Germs in the air, but as far as Paint I can't say. I would suggest getting and Air Cleaner with a Charcoal Filter (The filter is Black and feels rough). Most HEPA Filters has a the Charcoal part fastened to the HIPA Filter. The Charcoal Filters usually takes care of any type of Orders (Organic like Food Orders and Chemical like Paint).

Depending on the surface, it will most likely leave residue. A rag with some mineral spirits or paint thinner will easily remove the residue however.

Hi Bobbi JeanIf you are using this on a fireplace window it will get the soot off. The glass will always soot up depending on what you are burning. I use it on a pellet stove. and use old newspapers. If you have a tractor supply place they usually have this in stock.

Depending on spray pattern it will take paint off a car wheel. But it was totally my fault. I was trying to get tar off and before I knew it I was down to bare metal. :(

It usually does not take off paint. It may take off a little with lots of scrubbing, but I've very good luck with this stuff taking off all residue without damaging the surface or paint underneath.

my experience with this filter and lacquer paint is not good. you will need a cartridge filter w/charcoal to be effective against any higher concentrations of paint vapors.

It should. I found citri-strip useless, too. It removed off wood and metal very well. In most places the oaint waa multiple coats and had been on 40 years or more.

Directions on the container say, "For open burning fireplaces, this product or Rutland Soot Sweep Soot Remover may be used". That being said, I would want to avoid the fumes as much as possible if it were my open stove.

It works really well, and unlike some of the alkaline enviromental strippers (like Peel Away 7) it won't darken the wood. If the paint is many coats accumulated over decades, it may require a second application to get it all.

As long as you can get it to stick, you should be fine. We used this on the pipe from our wood stove back to the chimney to turn it from silver to black, so I'd imagine it would work in other locations. you might need to clean thoroughly and sand first though. Try it and see how it works. The key is this is high temperature resistant paint, so it wont bubble and burn off.

my best guess is no.i would try scraping off as much of the tar substance as possible. i had paint that had been applied to my wall, and i spent a lot of time scraping and sanding it off.

It works great removing paint. It peels the paint. Very Strong. Try something else, if is not paint what you are trying to remove...maybe a degreaser...

Ozium is not a long term answer for your situation. It won't remove smoke odor from walls, etc. It is a great product for removing odors when they are there (preventing them from sticking to walls). Hope this helps!

Patty, I think this would br perfect to clean soot on jewelry. Particles will come off the metal like "smoke" as it cleans. Clean with hot water only first, keep changing the dirty water, then consider doing over with a MILD soap product!

it will, but removing the stuff after it has been painted is much more difficult. most people use water on the acoustic to soften it up so it comes off easy, after it has been painted the water does not absorb as well and the stuff is sealed better so its harder to scrape

I'm sure this product would remove paint- I had to take some white paint off of a cedar deck with it recently. Cabot makes some great products for deck cleaning and finish removal and you may think about going that route. I have used their stuff and I was really impressed.
