Default How to remove polyurethane varnish?


The previous owner of this house really loved dark brown PU varnish -
yuk!
Dealing with the wardrobe doors was easy (one trip to Island Road) and I
don't care about the garage side door, and the outside windowsills are
covered with white plastic now -

but is there any way of getting the bl**dy stuff off the inside
windowsills?

PS anyone want half a gallon of dark brown PU varnish that he left behind?

Why do you need to remove it? - can't you just paint them white to match the
exterior cills?
