Need suggestions to clean garage

[Rogue_77]

Ok, here's what I did. I was spray painting my bike in the garage over the winter. I THOUGHT I had enough cardboard/newspaper on the ground but evidently I didn't and there are nice lines of spray paint on the ground. Any suggestions on getting rid of it?

Paint over it.

[wanted]

Paint remover.

It's on the floor of the garage, do you really care about it all that much? If you really want to clean it, then buy some paint thinner or solvent to clean it. That's the easiest way. Not the most environmental-friendly, however

Well, personally, I couldn't care less but the 'rents was none too pleased when they saw it

ifg you can borrow a pressure washer.. gas one if you can.. if not a electic one, use paint thinner, let it sit for a bit.. spary it off with the pressure washer.. and wash it until it dissapates.

i'm sure I have seen concrete liquid cleaner at Home Depot. Just ask those orange dressed fools to recommend a particular product.



possibly these depending on how thick the paint?

Goof Off (brand name) will work on dried latex .. but you probably used oil based for a bike.

Go and get some paint/varnish stripped but test it on the concrete first. It may strip the "finish" on the concrete (some garages have a sealant on the concrete so test it first. You may have to strip the paint/sealant then reapply the sealant.

Thanks for the tips. Now all I gotta do is wait for the warm weather or for my parents to start getting on my case about it. Whichever comes first
