How to get old gloss paint off brickwork?
I'm just about to remove an old entrance porch which is fixed up to the brickwork.
In the past someone has painted the woodwork with gloss paint and managed to get quite a lot onto the bricks which will look far worse once the porch
has been taken down.
Appart from trying to wire brush it off does anyone have any suggestions haw I could remove this.
John.

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Brake fluid?
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

beware of pressure washing bricks - you can take the surface coating off them
