Just had a phone call from a friend, she has done the same, I have not had a chance to look at it yet though.

In the past we have had marks from plant pots which is probably the same type of stain, so far I have never been able to shift one of those yet!  I will give solution No 3 a go

I normally pre-treat with Hydromaster Orange Jel.

After 5-10 minutes dwell, scrape up what you can, then finish with Eco Spotter proir to rinsing..
