Could this be used safely to strip paint from old, every textured brick?

I haven't used it for that but this is really powerful so I would bet it would.

I think it would certainly be a viable solution. I used this on metal which I believe is the intended use. That said I did "test" it on a brick paver that had some spilled paint on it and it bubbled up and removed the paint within 15 minutes. I will say that this has some acid in it I believe so you wont want to leave this too long on any sort of stone or it may cause damage as it will likely start to eat away. Good luck. IMO it is certainly worth a shot!

Not sure. If it fits i am sure it can work, but i have never really needed to do that. It literally strips the paint/rust etc... and leaves a perfectly paintable lightly roughed up surface.

I think it would work well but I haven't used it for paint removal. It heats up quickly and has two heat settings. Not a very good answer I know. I use it to soften resin on my sculptures before gluing and I love it.

This is not the type of chemical stripper that makes paint curl up and scrape off. If that is what you want, go to Home Depot and ask. This products is to refinish pieces with care.

I don't know, never tried it for that, I use it to remove paint from hands and other stuff after painting

I would be inclined to say yes. You'll have to scrape or sand the majority of the paint and you'll use the polish to restore the surface.

Probably not. It is a bit too long for scrubbing. I use it to smooth out short boards and it does fine.

Why would you want to? If you want less pressure, I suggest just moving back away from the target some. I have never stripped paint off anything I did not want to at full power. Different tips work as noted previously.

Wouldn't think so. It is best suited for ceramics, glass and hard surfaces.

Technically yes, that is exactly how it works. Look up melamine foam. It is abrasive and porous on a microscopic level, and it sucks those stains up into the foam, destroying the foam in the process. But to feel the eraser with your hand, it is fairly soft, more like a sponge. The stain removing power really is amazing - I have used it to remove scuffs and crayon marks on walls, caked-on oven grease, and burn marks on a ceramic pan. I haven't had any materials get damaged with gentle use, but if you were to really worry a spot with the sponge, it would eventually wear through layers of paint.

Works great and is safe to work with,after I strip paint I use denatured alcohol to clean up gummy residue

That's exactly what I used it for and it worked great. Be sure to clean off any loose paint or previously applied sealants. Clean the area with alcohol or other cleaner that does not leave a residue.

No, sorry to say this tool will not do what your looking to do with it. This tool is wonderful for removing cermaic tile from substrates. A carbide head on a buffer would do a better job but still may not remove all the residue.

I use it on brick (Old Chicago split brick) and it is gorgeous! Since brick and satillo tile are both made from clay, I would expect it to perform about the same.

You would be better off using a drip-less paint remover and then sanding after the paint has been removed. You would use a lot of disks as the paint has a tendency to clog them.

The dried epoxy can be stripped away at any time using any ordinary methylene-chloride based paint stripper.Please read my Amazon review for detailed tips: http://www.amazon.com/review/R18DNQ55SPT26G/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B001733NJ4&linkCode;=&nodeID;=&tag;=

Somewhat. You would still need to clear the system with either water or some type of solvent, depending on the type of paint you were using.
