Hi there,

I have got a hefty task in that I'd like to remove masonry paint from the whole house. I've tested two products currently on it that do the job in a way (C1 peel tec spray and No Nonsense Paint Stripper). They leave the paint quite soft and ready to be scraped if not with a little difficulty. Once scraped off they leave a residue on the brick. Using a stainless steel scouring pad it mostly seems to come off but with a fair bit of difficulty. Is there any other method/product someone would recommend for getting it off that doesn't leave a residue? If not can I affix a stripping disc to my grinder to get the residue off without as much elbow grease and not damage the brick face? (Pictures attached off the residue)

Thank you in advance.
