Rust Spots on Driveway Pavers
 

Has anyone experienced little rust spots appearing on some of their driveway pavers? If so, is there a solution?
Thanks

Fertilizer containing iron is the cause. The sun may bleach it a little.

You can remove the spots with a wire wheel on a electric drill. When you or anyone puts fertilizer down be sure it is all swept off the pavers, I learned the hard way. I just had my driveway sealed and had to remove the spots before they pressure washed it as they don't come off with a pressure washer.

Snowcap Rust Stain Remover easily removes the stains

Go to Ace Hardware, they have the solution.

I used everything suggested, Snowcap left white spots, Muriatic Acid left white spots, CLR did not work, vinegar, lemon, etc., nothing worked. Wire wheel on drill did the trick, it only takes a few seconds per spot, and no chemicals to mess with.

Could CLR help?

Didn’t work for post #6.

Weird, that post didn't show up when I answered the thread.

But then again, neither did my post...


Must have been a glitch in the Matrix...

Remove IRON spots with The Works Toliet bowl cleaner! I am not crazy, I've used it for years to remove iron stains. Only The Works has success because of the acid.

I have used Iron Out spray that worked fairly well.
