Rough concrete driveway

[jamiesmack]

Ive got a rough concrete drive to do this week, like the one in this picture (not my pic)

Is there anything in particular I should know / be aware of?

Also, there is a small oil stain at one end, is there any way of removing it?

Cheers

@Eviestevie can probably suggest something. He knows driveways.

Go slow as u will leave lines if u race it.. There is a oil remover u can apply that will lift the oil

Put petrol on the stain if it's a small one and then burn off with a mapgas blowtorch

Will burn the whole lot away

 

[Eviestevie]

Brake cleaner sorts it

Also if quite a new stain oil away

But that said if the oil has been there years and well absorbed into the concrete sometimes there's always a slight stain

That's were you sell a recolour

Sell sell sell

Oils always been a pain for me, Ive tried all sorts and its never done what it says on the tin, will definatley give brake cleaner a go in future as Evie tends to know his drive cleaning /emoticons/smile.png . as far as the bare concrete drive goes they are a breeze, just be careful of any cracks and flakey areas as you'll soon lift a decent chunk if you hit a fragile area with too much pressure, Ive not had need for any chems on them aside from an after clean dose of algae cleaner/biocide if its been thick with it to stop it coming back for a few months
