I am removing some peeling paint on an outside door and window frame. Some of the paint is coming right off, but other spots are difficult. I don't want to use any chemicals, so I'm looking for the best way to scrap the paint off using some type of tool.

  1. A heat gun.  


  2. Small paint scraper and a putty knife. You can follow up with sandpaper after scrapping. Be careful old paint pre 1980 could contain lead. Take precautions.

  3. wallpaper scraper i should think

  4. get a wire brush attachment for a drill

  5. Generally it depends on what the material is that you are trying to remove paint from. Putty knife/scraper, Exacto Knife/Razor Blade *do this with caution, not recommended for anyone with any kind of bleeding issues, or children* Otherwise there are solutions that you can purchase at your local hardware store. Good Luck.
