Title: Oil on block paving
Post by: davep on April 03, 2015, 05:21:58 pm

What's the best for oil on block paving?  Is it still left on the oil for a few days or is there a better way?

That's off another forum. Got one on Thursday but looking for a good product, funny thing is they all claim to be great at oil removing!

Don't want a call back because it wicks back up  ???

How many sets have been effected? Could you jet  out the fixing sand  and replace them with ones taken from a less visable area?

Davep - the after photos look great 👍 Could you please give a description of the process? Just like did you pre wet the area or was it a wet day, was it a dry day and no pre wetting, dwell times etc.

Would be very much apprecaited as i have used OT8 twice and the results were not great👎

Thanks Gavin

Prewet, poured on, scrubbed in and left 30 mins. Then jetted off
