<![CDATA[Removing paint from concerte?]]>So a can of VHT chassis paint got ran over on my driveway awhile back, but I will be moving out the end of this month and I kind of forgot about it being there. Tonight I tried using aircraft brand paint thinner, with little luck. Anyone have any other suggestions? I thought about renting a pressure washer, but I would like some more insight on the subject. If needed I will take a picture tomorrow in the day light if you need to see the amount of area I am dealing with.

Thanks, Jon

put some of that stuff on for awhile and see what happens, that shit usually makes stuff melt instantly

not sure if it will discolor the concrete or not

If I owned the house, I would spend the extra money on doing that. But being my lease is up the end of this month, I dont see the need.

I was talking more so about the "jackhammer" and the "lots of elbow grease" comments. I have heard about the sand blaster, just didnt know how well that would go over with the HOA, then again I could just blame it on the dust storm.

I had some luck with Lift off Graffiti remover. going to go and buy a gallon tomorrow. I did look into just buying a powerwasher, but tried this other route first. Thanks.
