The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Different stains need different cleaners. Oil and grease need degreasers or poultices, rust needs acid-safe treatments and paint or old coatings need stripping. Cleaning the right way avoids spreading the stain or etching the concrete.

Concrete Coating removes stains from driveways, garage floors, patios and shop slabs in Nashville and across Middle Tennessee. We identify the stain, test on a small area and combine degreasers, hot-water washing and poultices to lift what can be lifted.

Good questions

Stain Removal: common questions

Can old oil stains be removed?

Often they can be reduced a lot, and fresh stains come out best. Deep stains may need poultices or grinding, and some ghosting can remain.

Do I need to remove stains before coating?

Yes. Oil left in concrete can keep coatings from bonding, so stains are treated or ground out first.
