After time, people start seeing and paying attention to the unsightly marks left by their car, or some else’s tires on their driveway and garage floors. They can be ugly and even irritating to see, like a blemish on your home. Many of us hate seeing these and want them cleaned up. The good news is that they can be removed.
Depending on where they are, how long they have been there, and how thick the tire marks are , can make all the difference when removing them. The marks left by tires are essentially pieces of tire’s rubber that has come off and been “cooked” into the concrete surface the rubber landed on sits. For whatever reason it happened, we know that they irritate you and you want driveways and garage concrete or floors looking nice again!
How do I remove black tire marks on Epoxy Coated Floors?
If you have an epoxy coated floor that is sealed this process will be much easier than if you don’t. Epoxy or vinyl coated surfaces are easier to clean than plain concrete or metal surfaces. Most of the time with coated surfaces you can get the tire marks out with some soap, water, and good old fashion scrubbing.
