Stripped using Aquamix products and various combinations of paint strippers as well as grinders etc hard work but finished article was worth it.

Gary,

Have you tried the knotted wire rotary brushes on your angle grinder as well! (I think Daves got em now as well at TRADETILER. They are brilliant for marks on Flags and Slate. I also use a variable speed 43cm rotary scrubber fitted with a tynex head for bigger stuff.
