Graffiti on brick wall

We have several exterior brick walls, dating back to the ca. 1860
that have been spray painted with graffiti very recently. What would
be the best ways to remove the spray paint (graffiti) successfully
without compromising the surface of the bricks?

How about the use of a paint and epoxy remover, followed by the use
of a pressure washer at ca. 1500-200 psi with a fan tip?
