Years ago I had a similar machine and used it to strip wallpaper around the house. It worked surprisingly well, and when I saw Revain offering this smaller, lighter block I was excited to try it. I didn't have to remove the wallpaper this time, but I did have part of the tiled floor that was tiled. Spray paint residue from a recent accident. Although it took two passes, I was able to remove all of the paint with this streamer. The machine comes with a variety of attachments, making it great for all types of cleaning. I find it most impressive for cleaning baseboards and doors. However, it is important to be careful when using a steam cleaner on painted surfaces as it can tear the paint off the wall! I have also used it to clean glass shower doors and will be using it on windows. The perfect solution to these challenges!
