Paint on stone mullions
Nice windows with stone mullions, but previous decorators have
splashed a multitude of colours around the edges next to the glass. Any good tips on how to remove such paint. Probably all water based. Brick acid ? Mike P the 1st |

JimK Hmmmm.. nothing mechanical, or else the stone is going to look different forever. The paint is only 4-5mil wide in places. I did notice that the steamer lifted some of it as I removed wall paper .. wish I had not papered until it had been sorted now. Mike P the 1st |
