How to Remove Discolored Spots From Your Paver Patio
Outdoor paver patios make a lovely place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Many people set up their grills on the patios and eat meals outside on hot days so that they do not have to heat up the insides of their homes. Sometimes, these outdoor meals can result in stained areas on your patio. When you spill a greasy substance on your pavers in Las Vegas, these tips may help you to get rid of the stains.
Rinse
The first thing to do when you notice a stain on your paver patio is to use a mild detergent such as Dawn dish soap and some warm water to rinse the area. Dish soap contains degreasing agents that can help to disperse the grease and prevent it from reattaching to the surface of the stones. This dish soap is generally considered safe for the environment and should not harm any of your landscaping or the finish of your stones.
Kitty Litter
Kitty litter that is non-clumping and consists only of clay is an excellent tool for soaking up oily and greasy stains on porous surfaces. As soon as you notice a greasy or oily spot on your paver patio, apply a layer of kitty litter onto the stains. Let the kitty litter sit on the spot for at least 48 hours. Gently sweep the kitty litter off with a broom. You may need to repeat this step several times.
Trisodium Phosphate
Trisodium phosphate is a powdered detergent concentrate that you can make into a paste with water. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for creating the paste. Spread the paste over the stains and allow it to rest for 24 hours. Wash the paste off with warm water.
