Question:
Answers:
hammerite has thinners of it own use that then wash again worked for me
Try white spirit or turps, Hammerite is probably oil based and won't come off with water.
Dab Nitromors on the affected spot - leave for a couple of mins and then wash it off
Have you tried thinners? I don't what the technical name is for it? You use it to remove gloss paint from brushes, it stinks, but any good DIY store will have it. Depends on the size of the area you are trying to clean of course?!
scratch the surface of the hammerite apply brick acid ...leave for 10 mins then wash off .(the brick acid//motar clean is available in all DIY outlets ...
easy turn the blocks around ie up side down brush in fresh sand job done
white spirit and a scrubbin brush - water wont do it so you will need some good rubber clothes to hold the scrubber or lose layers of skin!
Electric heatgun, which you use for stripping paint. You should wear a mask though.
