Removing Paint from Concrete

Some DIY tips from our users:

  • You can get specialist cleaning products from the hardware or DIY store. Try using a Jet Wash (or power washer) as well.
  • I would try using a pressure washer before anything else. Be aware, though, that this method can be damaging to foliage and other surfaces. Remover (stripper) for concrete paint can be found at most local hardware stores and used easily. See the Related link for a step-by-step article (plus photos) on how to use one.

Do you feel comfortable hitting it with a hammer (that's what I do with my Concrete Mixer.) There is always Muratic Acid not very friendly to your truck, But seriously "Zep" makes a product called "Mudslide" this is a Concrete disolver it works pretty good if you are talking about splatter or if the Concrete isn't too thick. It is a little spendy but it beats using a putty knife to scrape it off which your paint won't like very much.

It depends on whether it is a water (latex) based paint or a oil based paint. If it is oil based paint it may not come out, but if it is a water (latex) based paint use 'Goof Off' or other latex paint removers with a wire brush. I have used 'Muriatic acid' on some concrete appications.

Yes! The muriatic acid will remove epoxy paint on a concrete floor.

I got this reference from http://foundationarmor.com and it worked!

Can you paint over latex paint with alkyd lacquer paint that is for concrete floors?

I wouldn't recommend it. Some of the chemicals in the alkyd will dissolve the latex and the alkyd won't "stick". It's best to remove the latex using laquer thinner or xylene first.
