Hi Folks

Was just wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions for removing paint spots from a concrete path, the previous owners werent that neat wiht paitning and there are a mixture of paint stains from red gloss to fence paint on the path, dont have access to a power washer and not going to hire one as the problem is just in one area, are there any products out there that i can use to remove these stains not afraid of elbow grease.

Thanks in Advance.

A pressure washer? I was in Argos today, they were selling them for about 30 euro.

Someone will probably recommend some acid based product.

Perhaps a combination of the two?
