Fertilizer stained path and bricks

adelcrowsmel · 2016-08-02 06:39:59

I put some lawn fertilizer and weed killer down during the week and unfortunately while spreading it some went on the concrete paths and also on a patio/brick area and this have left brown/rust stains on these areas. Lesson learnt....sweep down all surfaces the next time!! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove…

Lesson learnt....sweep down all surfaces the next time!! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove these - I have tried just using a wire brush and scrubbing and also a soapy solution and also store bought patio cleaner but I have had no joy as of yet. Any suggestions appreciated!!

Vitamin c tablets dissolved in water should remove rust like stains.

Haven't done this but heard from a few sources that it works a treat.
