Default How to clean burnout marks?

Was leaving work today still in the work carpark. when I hear my superviser call out to me and tells me to do a burnout..

I put my foot down didn't dump the clutch but broke into wheel spin and left two nice tyre marks in the work carpark...

Dreading going to work tomorrow cause I'm 99% sure the boss seen me do it. So I'm going to ask in advance how to clean them if he most likly makes me.

You cant, they wont come off, the only way to try and get some concrete cleaner, (its a powder form) chuck it on, sprinkle with water, then scrub with a broom, do this process a few times and they will still be there, but in a few weeks they will fade!

Thats the only way i know of.

5" Grinder and a wire buff wheel. Worked for me when I let one off in the carpark at the Chrissy breakup.

I've been using this stuff for getting glue & lino up off the floor. It's pretty potent stuff - could be worth a go. I had a good laugh at your post - I blew an axle doing a burnout for my boss when I was 16 - right in front of work in the old HR. How embarrassment.

edit - oh yeah, the stuff is Glue Dissolver or something similar from the paint section at Bunnings.

Sorry man, you pretty much have to wait till they fade away. I managed to leave to long marks on my parents driveway after trying to roll start a seized corolla and tried everything to get them off no success.

Lol, I'm trying to plan out what I'm going to say cause I'm pretty sure it wasn't just the one boss that saw but the 3 company owners sitting in an office overlooking the carpark.

He's Right ... i've used it many a time ...

or just say "what? nah that wasn't me driving ... car was in the workshop and my cousin came down with it to pick me up ...."

haha, or remove them tonight, go in tomorrow and act all dumb like nothing happened and make the boss think he's lossing his mind ... then remind him of a convo that you never had about a promotion!!! hahaha

urine. but you cant wee on it at night. the suns rays and the amonia in the wee work together to remove the black marks, so you need to do it during daylight hours.

probably.
