Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0159134A1] The present invention provides a surface stripping aid 2 comprising a body 10 having a sole plate 11 and a handgrip means 18. The body 10 has a heated water passage means 13 with an inlet means 17 provided with connection means 19 for connection to a water supply 8, 9 so as to supply water to said passage means 13 in use of the aid 2 with said sole plate 11 disposed in a substantially vertical position and outlet means 27 extending through and distributed across said sole plate 11. The heated water passage means 13 is formed and arranged so that when water enters said passage means 13 it is substantially vapourised and expelled through the sole plate 11 via said outlet means 27 therein into contact with a surface 5 to be stripped against which said sole plate 11 is held. The water connection means is preferably provided with one-way valve means 20 for permitting only admission of water to the passage means 13 through said inlet means 17.
