Cleaning Paint from Concrete
Here is advice:
- Strong paint thinner will after a few applications finally clear it
- If you can afford it (and the price is coming down), a pressure washer will work wonders on paint. Once you own one you'll find all kinds of uses for it.
- The pressure washer is great advice. I have a pressure washer and used it to remove 30 year old paint off of brick.
- Solvents, even carburetor cleaners, are more effective with dry rags to absorb the paint residue. Be sure to dispose of the rags safely or contain them properly for future use.
- I have been soaking an area with some red oil based over spray with paint thinner (for approx 1 min) and then going over it with the pressure washer with limited success so far. 1550 PSI pressure washer $100 home depot.
