    Default How to clean out a burnout

    Hey guys, I know this sounds silly, but my mate done a burn out outside my house, I would like to clean it up, because its a cream pebble stone road, and its really really black, right out the front of my house, looks pretty bad, does anyone know what might help me get it off the road, maybe prepsol, or some kind of acid.

    Any ideas would be great.

    Cheers

    Yup I sure did, Im sorry for being a Commodore owner and a 4wd owner haha.

    Anyway, I used acid, and a wire wheel on my cordless drill, 4 batteries later and its a fair bit better, won some brownie points back with the neighbours, and the people that said if its a public road why bother, well because im one of 2 people exclusivly to the pebble road, so its pretty obvious where it came from, secondly, its a cream coloured road, it stands out a mile away and looks pretty trashy, and thirdly, I dont want to live in a place where my neighbours are going to hate me, youve seen those tv shows where things can get pretty ugly with neighbours, I like my place and its location.

    Cheers

    I was egged on something chronic!!!

    the only other time I've ever done something like that.. was a girl played me something stupid.. actually cheated on me, while falling pregnant to a third guy.. long story short, out of anger I backed my car up the drive way and let it fly..

    Drove past a few weeks later, and saw a bit of rubber spray on the garage door.

    well for the guys who think its not a problem, have some pride! i live in an area where it isnt a common thing to do, therefor i wouldnt appreciate it happening here. it would make us look like the scum of teh street.

    It happens all the time in the dodgy commission area here, though alot of the people down that street get their thrills discussion how much they drink and how big a wheelie they can do. sad really.... such pathetic aspirations....
