How can I remove paint from a wrought iron railing?
I am trying to strip a wrought iron railing! It currently has two coats if white semigloss paint! I started to use a paint stripper and scrapping with a wire brush, but the process is taking way too long! 4 hours only took off the first coat if about a 12 inch legit ruler size of paint. I want to take it back to the natural black! Any help would be much appreciated😊

You could try a heat gun to help melt the paint but it would still need the wire brush and scraping. It is a hard job but I am not sure of any quicker way of doing it. I hope you get it done!
