I agree with John, but also test first.since it may also remove the glaze and dyes on the tiles

Barry,

 

Usually the best way to remove paint is with a paint stripper. Be careful this will remove the paint from the tile and if you’re not careful will remove the paint from the surrounding areas.

Hi folks,

I have a friend who wants to remove paint from glazed tiles around a fireplace.  it was painted about 1920 and oddly enough he is having problems with the smooth tiles.  any help would be appreciated.
