What's the surface of the wall under the paint? Rendered, brick, block etc.

In that case, I think you will be lucky to remove all traces of it.

My only suggestion wold be sandblast it ( messy and not guarenteed ) but if you did that you could well then be able to paint over with heavy duty exterior paint

If its a cost issue then blasting it would cost alot but do the job properly best get a proper company in to do it, powerwashing may do it but doubt it everywhere unless its all flaking off allready.

If its gloss only a solvent would do the job easily start at the top of the wall and work down, if its rendered any solvent may effect the render as well so get professional advice.

If you're going to be washing chemicals down the main drain just go careful that its not going into a natural outlet rather then a sewer.
