No good deed goes unpunished, I was detailing my father-in-law's expedition last night and didn't notice I had spilled some of the blackfire sealant I was using on the garage floor until this morning. I have a no slip epoxy coating over the concrete so it has a textured finish. I tried some purple power and a hard brush, it didn't budge; tried my electric pressure washer, it laughed at me although the floor is extra clean around the sealant now. This sealant is tough as nails, you all have any solutions to get this unsightly drips off my garage floor? Hoping someone knows the answer??? I tried searching and I am coming up with nothing. The house is being sold in 2 weeks, I want to get this stuff up best as possible.

No kidding, tried soaking in wd-40, then lacquer thinner, this stuff won't budge.

Might sound crazy but may a heat gun or hairdryer and warm it up then brushing it??

Nothing crazy, thanks for input, trying everything, just washed floor again after scrubbing with stiff brush, it will stay as is.
If it stuck to the car finish this well we would only have to seal every 5 years lol.

Might be worth a try but if your garage floor has been epoxy sealed, have you tried just using an old polishing pad and finishing polish?

It has a texture non-skid so not porous but texture is holding the sealant.

Its soluble in mineral spirits. Dunno what it will do to your floor though.

I think any "solution" to this will make the problem worse.

Just tell the new home owners that exact spot on the garage floor is extremely durable, and if you'd like to protect the entire floor the same way, I can refer you to AutoGeek. Lol
