I NEED HELP !!!

[LEV_101]

was painting my brake caliper red will that deplic paint kit . . . looks really nice now. . . i when into the house to get something . . . and then when i came back . . . the tin of tipped onto the ground on the concreat and now there is a big red spot . . .

WHAT CAN I USE ON IT TO CLEAN IT BEFORE MY MUM FINDS OUT !!!





im going to get killed if you guys dont help me ...

tried everything ( well almost ) water , degreasser, brake fluid, thats about it ...

[DeeCee]

whats it say on teh back of the can? normally they give instructions on removal..

[Boosted_162]

Have you got a waterblaster? Giving it a good high pressure wash down could get it off

[LEV_101]

it doesnt say anything about removing it on the back





i tried waterblasting it . . . . but my one is a bit weak i guess . . .

anymore ideas guys ?

[Boosted_162]

My only other idea would be something used to remove oil etc from driveways. I use liquid magnet on oil, and it works a charm

[Emperor]

get grey/black paint and paint the driveway

[Dell'Orto]

Degreaser probably wont get it, as that stuff is designed to be resistant to alot of chemicals...you'll probably have to scrub the concrete down with a wire brush.
Failing that, you can get a product called Concrete Kleen which is meant to get rid of most stuff...but its pretty brutal stuff.

I'd say you're gonna get your ass kicked dude

Washing Powder works very well when on things still wet as it soaks up Oil etc. It removes most of it anyway. But im wouldnt be that confident that it would work now.

Ask Martha Stewart?

Have you tried Meths, Turps, Paint Thinner, all of the above???

[Mr. Mainstream]

its hard to get anything out of concrete. i just to do cleaning and ive seen $&#$% HUGE pads boring down into concrete with boiling water to no avail. that was oil.

[Alex B]

Paint thinners or paint remover. or solvent N, accualy id probly go with solvent N, at ya local mitre 10 etc.

[narlystarly]

Think the best thing for it is straight spirits of salts, i know a few people who use it to clean driveways.

[DeeCee]

acetone? i can't remember if it will work or not, though it helps when i clean brushes when fibreglassing..

[Mr. Mainstream]

salts,acetone,spirits or thinners will only get the a small bit of the first layer, concrete is like a sponge, listen to me here.

[Mr. Mainstream]

tried everything degreasser, brake fluid,

you tried to clean it off with brake fluid>?

[supraman_nz]

you tried to clean it off with brake fluid>?

seems like the smart thing to do

[EssDub]

Spirits of Salts will get it out, (WARNING: 50% Hydrochloric Acid) but you will probably notice it gets very VERY clean afterwards, lol as its used for preparing concrete and other semi-porous surfaces for painting

[AJz]

Paint thinners or paint remover. or solvent N, accualy id probly go with solvent N, at ya local mitre 10 etc.

*cough*sales pitch*cough*

[Alex B]

LOL warning do not use solvent n on celica lights

[RS13]

Just go buy a whole pig, then skin and gut it on the driveway, tell your mother you've got it for her as a present, cmon, would she really be angry after all your hard work?







Seriously, try liquid magnet, that shit rocks. Otherwise, paint etc tends to wear off concrete quite fast, just tell her it'll wear off.

[Infinite]

lol just rip the drive out i bet she wont notice
