Before and after tin tiles

This will be the tile on the wall of the kitchen( subject to change , but that is the plan)
After cleaning one time with oven cleaner. Oven cleaner is what I read on the internet to be the best at removing some paint and not damaging the tin underneath. 


After cleaning twice with oven cleaner. I did not think there was yellow under all that green. I'm not sure I like the yellow but we will figure it out later. At least all of the loose paint is off.


Two of the other kinds of tile. The white one is the same as the one underneath it. The long white piece is crown moulding.




This type of tin cleaned up after one spray of oven cleaner.It looks like at some point the ceiling was in a fire because of the soot on it and the change of colors. These will be the backsplash in the kitchen.


The orange will be a ceiling but haven't yet decided where to put it. The white crown moulding goes with it.  
After one round of oven cleaner.

After the second cleaning. Now just a few hundred more pieces to clean!  We are still figuring out if we will end up painting over them or just clear coating them.
