How Do You Remove Epoxy Paint From Cement?
If you are using epoxy paint and accidentally spill some on a concrete surface, there is a solution for removing it. Products containing a chemical called methylene chloride will remove the epoxy paint. The products can be found in hardware and home improvement stores, and as long as you take the proper safety measures, the process for removing the epoxy paint is relatively easy. Put on ventilator mask, safety glasses and work gloves. Use a natural fiber paintbrush to apply a thick coat of Rock Miracle or another epoxy paint remover containing methylene chloride to any epoxy paint spots on the cement. Let the area sit for 5 to 7 minutes, then scrub clean with steel wool. Clean your work area thoroughly with a mop and clean water. Keep any windows open or fans going to air out the room (if indoors) to avoid breathing in the fumes.
