Default Removing paint from brick? ? ?

Thanks -- will do that.

We have a brick hearth which was speckled with paint droppings many years

I've done everything I can think of to get the drops out -- scraping,
scrubbing, even used paint remover. But nothing works. I think the paint
has seeped deep into the brick.

Any suggestions welcome.



Can't get it out because the surface is too rough and irregular. Very
easy to conceal small spots with acryllic paint from the craft store - I
used it to cover dark brown stain my neighbor got on concrete deck.
