Have to do some pipework shortly, Whats the best way to clean up the
old pipe which has paint on it, Prior to jointing.


Scraping with the side of a wood chisel (or similar implement with a
hard edge) along the length of the pipe in the manner of peeling
potatoes works for me! Try not to get any of the peelings in the pipe
though.
