While this isn't strictly a "wood" problem, this seems to be the most appro-
piate group. I recently purchased a brick house with at least two layers of
paint. It is peeling badly and even if I decide to repaint it, it will need
to be completely stripped to ensure the longevity of the new paint. Has any-
one out there got any suggestions for removing paint from brick. Also, if
anyone has a copy of the discussion on stripping wood trim (I've got that too)
could you please mail me a copy.

                                              Thanks
