I'm about finished sealing my leaky FSJ's. My wife has asked that I remove the evidence from the driveway. This morning I used the Castrol purple stuff for driveways, and it made a good start, but I'm afraid some of that stuff is in there pretty good. Someone suggested Muriatic acid, but I've heard there can be a trick to getting that out of the concrete.

Any Ideas??

Thanks,

Greg

Box of Tide and a pushbroom worked pretty well for me.

simple green, heavy bristled brush, elbow grease

If you have concrete use any good grease remover, castrol, tide etc. Follow up with Muriatic acid and then hot water, steam or a pressure washer.

Muriatic acid scrubbed into the concrete by hand with a 3x6" metal bristle brush, rinsed well and then soaked w/ bleach overnight is the best I've ever been able to do. There will always be some gray-ish blotch...but if you squint just right, you won't notice it much.
