As far as I know the 2 paint removal methods are a heat gun or
somesort of chemical that you paint on

What is the ebst to use outside?

The shed is made of breezeblock I think but the external bit is
smooth so I guess it must be rendered or something....


When I repaint it I will be using masonary paint of course which can
be bought textured or smooht - will textured cover up bumps/cracks
better?

First question - wire brush.

Re second - I've not tried them so cannot comment.
