      If you decide to strip the paint from the fireplace I suggest using Citristrip which is a safe and Non-toxic product.

    It all depends what what final result you are looking for. Looking for original brick, you can strip or sandblast. You can resurface for a smooth finish or stucco type finish. You can paint for a painted finish or a mottled brick look. All kinds of options and possibilities.
