Microclimate controlled pad for effective paint stripping

Abstract

An assembly for removing a desired portion of one or more layers of paint or another coating from a designated area is provided including a pad soaked with a chemical paint remover and an adhesive layer arranged about the pad configured to couple the assembly to the designated area. A removable first protective layer is positioned upwardly adjacent and is coupled to the adhesive layer. A flexible support layer is positioned adjacent the adhesive layer and the pad, opposite the removable first protective layer. A heat pad is arranged downwardly adjacent the flexible support layer. The heat pad is configured to control a microclimate adjacent the assembly when activated. A removable second protective layer is coupled to a surface of the heat pad. Removal of the second protective layer activates the heat pad.
