To answer the question : How do you remove paint from a smooth surface stone wall? – you require the knowledge and experience to choose the right paint removal product that is

effective and safe. Once you satisfy those criteria it is then a question of how quickly does the application allow you to complete the procedure. This is the most complex aspect of repainting a stone wall. There are a number of ways of removing the paint based on traditional methods but they are neither safe nor totally effective and are time consuming and tiresome. The three most commonly used methods are Heat Treatment, Mechanical Sanding and use of harsh Solvents. Each has its own downside from both a technical and safety viewpoint which creates issues that  are worrying for all painters and third parties. Heat treatment produces vapours, fumes and potentially eye stinging smoke. Sanding in its different forms produces dust which can affect the respiratory system and solvents can emit noxious fumes. To put it in perspective you require a solution that is efficient, safe and easily applied. It should also leave a residue that is easily peeled away to reveal a clean base which is undamaged and well prepared for a new coat of paint. That is the ideal solution for removing paint from a smooth surface stone wall.
