How to clean years of build up paint off bunkers ??

[chong sparks]

Ive got a lot of bunkers and by the looks of them they have a few years of dried paint build up on them.

Ive tried jet wash and warm soapy water but it doesnt touch it. It has taken me a full day to do half of a coke can bunker

I estimate it will take me 4 months to clean them all at this rate and that is just to get the thick off. the thin white staining wont even budge after removal of the thick dry s***

Is there a good chemical that will disolve the thick dry paint but not harm the bunkers ?

Please any help im desperate

pressure washer used with bleach?

Edit*You could try boiling hot water as long as it doesnt touch the seams or joins

there was a thing called bunker scrub, google for it, but i don't know if it ever made it to the uk.

I'd be keen to see any other suggestions too.

I dont think that is available in the UK and i believe its main use is for the white dye left over on bunkers and not the solid thick build up that is on these bunkers.

Can you submerse them in a water and cilit bang mixture overnight?

I would need a small lake. We are talking 2 millenium fields worth of bunkers. good idea though.
