gloss paint

[pamnez]

I was painting my security gate with gloss paint and I dropped the tin. I now have a big patch of white paint on my doorstep. I have got most of it off but cannot shift the stain. Any ideas?

You could try a concentrated solution of caustic soda. DO NOT MAKE THIS UP IN HOT WATER!! This might work if you scrub it for some time. FOLLOW THE INSTRCTIONS ON HOW TO MAKE UP THE SOLUTION

Turps and a hard scrub brush?

A pressure washer will do it, hire or borrow one

If you really can't get it off paint the rest of your doorstep with brick paint to hide it.
