Paint stripper cannot contain that stuff but given a different name then its acceptable - possibly a coating ? The waste should be collected which would be quite sticky possibly. There are also other ways of removal but the tax evader is away.

It's limestone not sandstone. £50 per sqm to strip and reseal.

It might even be concrete Chris? the surface doesn't look right for it to be Limestone or Sandstone from what I can see of the photos.

Could be…always hard from pictures. It was the "black Indian sandstone" and the fact that somebody had bothered to seal it that I took a guess at black/grey ;D limestone. …It's quite common .
 I have seen a  black concrete cast "york stone" at waterside development and it was very very impressive. Random "worn "edges ,rope marks, square peg holes…it had everything.

Black Limestone & Black sandstone can look similar from photos to be honest. From the photos it looks more like a "cast" concrete fake look-a-like to me. The next question will be how do you know the difference between the two  ;D and "how was I supposed to know difference" when I quoted !!!!!
You know how it goes Chris
