Hi there, This is my first post to this group so be gentle ![]() I painted the outside wall of my house yesterday, using Sandtex Ultra Smooth Microseal. It rained heavily last night, I'm in Scotland, despite the weather report of clear skies. When I woke up this morning the paint had run, despite the average drying time of four hours, and spread with a milk like consistency over the concrete paving slabs of my patio. My question is: how can I remove the paint from the concrete paving slabs and restore them to there original council house "goodness"? Try using a pressure washer. The paint should be quite soft if you get in quick. Even 48 hours. Mind you, you might have to pressure wash the rest of the paving :-( Hire, borrow or buy one and see what you can do. Dave |
