Is this how paint is removed? #painting #peeling #blistering

What happens here

Once the optimal pressure and nozzle are determined, begin systematically cleaning the wall. As seen in the video, hold the pressure washer wand firmly with both hands, maintaining the chosen distance from the wall. Work in small, manageable sections, moving the spray in consistent, overlapping strokes (e.g., side-to-side or up-and-down). Focus on the areas with peeling paint, allowing the high-pressure water to lift and remove the loose flakes. Start from the top of the wall and work your way down to let gravity assist in rinsing away debris and preventing dirty water from running over freshly cleaned areas.

Goal: Thoroughly remove all loose and peeling paint from the brick wall
