so soaking the area with a shop cloth and either the muracic acid or cleaning vineger produces best, BEST results, over night or a few hours, I only have a couple of spots about a 4 inch square, the OCD in me wants it all gone

but the realist think nah, it'll do, I dont wanna mix up more acid.

so put to bed.

You should have taken before and after pics of this!

I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to see the mess the contractors left, and how it all turned out

Yeah, you know that would have been a good idea, but I was trying a whole heap of things before I turned to the forum, BUT that said

I did take some pics of the effects of using the sacrete

and then how I finally left it

It was taking hours of scraping/vinegar/acid etc just to get to thoes

I outlined in yellow highlight the actual area the mess was, I mean it was big, and also evey surface in my garage, all my tools, tool boxes, tires, workbench everything had a fine layer of dust it was a massive crappy clean up operation

Oh for God's sake, just rent one of these and get on with it. Stop messing about. You'll be done in under 10 minutes.
