If a driveway has oil based paint on it & it isn't sticking to what is underneath...how should I repaint it?

Pressure washing might not get rid of all the oil-based paint....should I prime it afterwards or put an epoxy on it? Please Help!!!If a driveway has oil based paint on it %26amp; it isn't sticking to what is underneath...how should I repaint it?
shot blaster....and no recoat. driveways should not be coated, only sealed. if anyone tells you to acid etch it, acid etching is only supposed to be done on uncoated concrete preparing to be painted. if you really want to recoat, everything has to come up. rent a shot blaster and that will take it all off in a matter of an hour or two. i would strongly recommend just sealing it after that, assuming your concrete is not stained badly or falling apart. otherwise, throw a two part epoxy (get tile-clad from sherwin williams) on it and hope for the best...but im not betting you wont even see a year out of it.If a driveway has oil based paint on it %26amp; it isn't sticking to what is underneath...how should I repaint it?
Pressure wash it first, of course. However, concrete is not like any other surface. To prime and paint it may be good, but not recommended, there is not a oil or latex driveway paint that will hold up to the heat of hot tires. Read the labels and all basically say that. Epoxy will hold up. If you chose this option, be careful to follow the directions, and do not mix up more than you will use, because it will harden. These type of coatings are available at Lowes, and Home Depot also.
Do not pressure wash anything. Scrape any loose paint and treat the areas that there is bare masonry with an etching solution. If the original oil base paint has a sheen to it, it must be lightly sanded to create better adheasion. Only a one part epoxy will adhere to this existing condition. A two part requires a bare masonry substrate. When you pressure wash concrete, you are actually forcing moisture into the concrete which is the worst thing possible. 90% of concrete coating failures is due to too much moisture in the concrete.


Primeing is not needed. Best solution is to use a latex or acrylic floor paint. good luck.
I would not paint or coat it at all, concrete is a maintenance fee surface, anything you put on it will not be. Blast is all off with a 2,500 psi pressure washer.
try a product called KILZ oil base primer and then paint it.
