Lay drop cloths around the outside of the house. This will prevent the chemical solvents from damaging the grass and other plants around the home.
Put on gloves, goggles and a dust mask to protect yourself from the paint stripper fumes.
Pour the paint stripper into a pump sprayer.
Spray the paint stripper over the entire surface of the painted and stained log home.
Let the paint stripper sit for 24 hours or according to the manufacturer. During this time, keep children and pets away from the log cabin. As the stripper works you will notice the paint slowly peel away from the wood.
Gently scrape the paint off with a plastic paint scraper. Use plastic so that you don't gouge the wood.
Repeat the process if there is another layer of paint or stain that is still visible.
Rinse the entire home with clear water and let it air dry completely.
