Fat Stains

I need some advice last night had a BBQ and managed to get Fat on my Garden Patio slabs,I,ve tried cleaning with Hot soapy water and Jeyes Fluid but the stains are still present.

Does anybody know how to remove this problem???

My apologies if in wrong section:o

 

Try cilit bang it seems to remove most things or try an ice cube sounds strange i know but i'm sure i've seen it done

 

Or try washing powder. It used to remove the oil stains off my pale coloured sink

 

Put brown paper over it then iron over the stain ...oops sorry thats for clothing :o
Ok either a detergent such as washing power mixed to a paste wit water leave on for 3o mins then hose off. You might fine it leaves a white patch tho :o Or clay kitty litter, Tread it in, leave on the stain for a few hours it allegedly soaks up the oil.

 

I would try a drop of neat washing up liquid. Scrub it on over the stain with a stiff brush, leave it ten minutes, and wash it off.

Let us know which method works

My patio is natural stone, I find a strong mix of detergent - washing up liquid and very hot water works. I had a problem with rust stains on my patio and I found a wire brush cleaned it up easily. Another cleaner is sugar soap ( from B n Q etc. used to clean paintwork ) use this neat on your stain and then brush and rinse. Try this on an out of the way section first in case it discolours the slab.
Hope this helps :thumb:

 

Forget washing powders and the so-called do it all cleaners, I was a decorating contractor and had to re-decorate a Chinese take-away kitchen on one occasion. There were layers of congealed oil on surfaces. These were scraped off and then it was scrubbed with Polyclens Paint Brush Cleaner and then washed off with water. I have used it many times since then, especially on clothing which had become stained with grease or oil.

 

Yup. Have the BBQ somewhere else.:D

 

Wow all the cleaning tips, from fellas as well!

Little miss is right, washing powder mixed with a little water in to a paste wipe it over leave it for a couple of hours at least and it will come off. Dishwasher powder or liquid does the exact same thing.

 

Sugar soap solution and a scrubbing brush, either that or the pollyclens brush cleaner larkshall recomends, both work well.

Hopefully will work so far not so good[thanks anyway peeps]

 

Mh, I dropped a dish of sushi on my neighbour new trousers once at a party(you just can´t bring me into society) talcum powder did the trick, and he did it in time to his next date without going home to change... may be it works for stone too?

 

I hope you didn't rub it in for him:rolleyes::D
