How to remove oil based paint off concrete soaked right in?

If its oil based then grab some thinner or mineral spirits. Get yourself a good stiff brush and go to town on it. Yeah, use a pressure washer to rinse. It may end up looking cleaner than the rest of your driveway, but it will soon fade back to normal after being weathered.How to remove oil based paint off concrete soaked right in?
Use laquer thinner at minimum for fast reaction or xylene ( xylol ) same thing and brush and water rinse with hose. These are very strong chemicals so keep out of eyes and dont sniff too much. Kleen strip brands sold at Home depot are garbage so find a good paint store. Dont rinse towards vegitation or it may croak.How to remove oil based paint off concrete soaked right in?
A good coating of oil dry or cat litter smashed and ground in with your shoe will go a long way to clean it up after the above instructions.
Hi


I use a pressure washer first. If no luck...get out a small sandblaster.


BTW... I just hate paint on my driveway.
