agree  Vepalm: decapante é o termo corrente pois remove tinta, verniz, etc...
45 mins
  -> Obrigada Vepalm.

neutral  Alvaro Neder, Ph.D.: segundo o Aurélio, decapar é: Remover ferrugem, tinta, incrustações, da superfície METÁLICA. Não foi especificado que o móvel era metálico. Não me importo com a pontuação, só me preocupo com o glossário. No mais, parabéns à vencedora : )

  -> Caro Colega, veja a minha explicação, não disse que era especificamente para metais, pk desconheço se os móveis são metálicos, só dei um exemplo. Aqui em Portugal decapante para móveis e chão de madeira é vendido em lojas de bricolage. Obrigada.
