Professional painter here for 40 years. Get a bottle of acetone (nailpolish remover) and pour it on spot. Scrub with wire wheel on a cordless screw gun or use a wire brush. Rinse with water. You can also hide the paint stain, by painting on vary watery cement mixture with a brush. 👍
This is me doing every project ever! Currently resurfacing concrete steps while wearing flip flops and shorts using acid to strip paint (bad idea fyi) realized diamond tip grinder definitely the way to go
You would be surprised just how bright the space would be if you just painted the floor too... a light gray or off white color.... I've had a few shops now and that's the first thing I do now because it's such a must now... less electricity used for lighting and helps to keep it clean all sorts of things
The residue left behind makes the grinder seem not so effective. A trade off I'm not so sure is worth making. I'm working on basement walls and having hard time getting all the paint off. I've used a scraper where I can, but a lot of stubborn large crackling paint surfaces are left behind. What do you think about applying a heat gun to get Drylok paint off the basement walls?
Use half sheet sander with 60 grit paper ..then handle the stubborn spots with a angle grinder. use 60/80 grit sand paper with the grinder ...nice video
@@alanjohnson6405 I didn't mean to be harsh. I have watched hundreds of videos on here as a novice DiY'er. Why take 10 minutes when you only need 2 minutes? The length is unimportant. I have seen 90 second videos get over a million views. As it turns out, I prefer not to chance your techniques. My garage floor has some kind of finish on it, and I think any sort of wire brush or grinding wheel on the end of a power tool would do more harm than good. I found a video for a chemical, that I can purchase for $40 per gallon at Lowes, which after it is applied only requires a stiff nylon brush. I have not tried it yet, but it seems to be the answer I was looking for. I won't post a review about it, until I have tried it first.
