Hi.

We recently got a new Indian sandstone patio.

At the weekend I did some painting and after finishing washed the roller and put it on the patio table to dry.

Overnight it has rolled off the table and across the patio leaving paint splodges all the way.

I have tried scrubbing it with a sponge and the paint will not come off at all.

I think the slabs are unsealed.

Is there anything I can do to remove the paint? I feel sick about this.

Thank you

Have you tried applying a bit of white spirit to a rough cloth and scrubbing the area?

You may want to try a small amount in an unimportant area first to make sure you don't get any stains or discolouration.

I know it sounds obvious when you say it, but it's not often the first thing that springs to mind with this kind of stain - paint stripper!

Minimal dabs, worked in with a paint brush and rinsed off withgin 3 minutes, little and often. It usually works a treat!
