Things You Will Need
Use only hot water and detergent, as solvent-based cleaners such as white spirit or turpentine will spread the stain over the tarmac surface.
-
Blot up as much of the gloss paint as possible with a cloth.
-
Fill a bucket with hot water and four to five drops of dish-washing detergent.
-
Dunk a stiff-bristle brush into the cleaning solution and vigorously scrub the stained area to remove as much of the gloss paint as possible. Dab the stained area dry with a cloth.
-
Scrape any remaining paint residue from the tarmac with a paint scraper. This should remove most or all of the gloss paint from the tarmac.
-
Apply a matte black oil-based paint with a paintbrush to mask any stubborn paint spots that were not removed.
