    Removing exterior paint from natural rock
    How do you remove exterior paint from natural rock? These stones are part of our front and are painted with a heavy brown paint. I would like to return the stones to their original state and then seal them with clear sealant.:confused:

    Thank you,
    Dawn Clark

    Hi, vanessadawn00!

    What kind of stones are they, please? Are they rough or perfectly smooth, perhaps a combination of different surface textures? Also, how large are they?

    A heat gun or liquid paint remover are the first things that come to my mind. But, it would help to know what it is exactly with which you're dealing here.

    Thanks!
