Have tried to clean with a rubber removing compound with no success.
Not a happy camper. Would have put pads where tires would be if only I had been told that every tire would stain it.
Painter looked at it and said he will repaint stained areas. He is well known and has excellent reviews. He did home interior and did beautiful job.
Can any expert out there tell me if it sounds like the sealer was too thin?
Will let you know how it turns out. His reputation leaves me optimistic at this point
Sounds like they may have applied a water based epoxy, which will react that way to hot tires. Should only use an oil-based product which will not mark.
