While visiting friends back in Chicago, I decided to wash their Honda.

Found a bottle of NuFinish in the garage (I know, but that's all he had), and after wash, applied product.

At one pint I accidentally knocked bottle over, and spilled it over their recently resealed driveway (black asphalt?). Now a white stain remains, about the size of a large pancake.

Any idea how to get rid of this? Was going to tell my buddy to use mineral spirits or paint thinner, but not sure if that will mess up the driveway even more.

I would use a general APC first before using mineral spirits or something similar. But then again its asphalt so i dont think anything you throw at it will necessarily hurt it.

They sell specific "black top cleaner" at most hardware stores. Should take almost all types of stains off of it and leave it nice and clean. Just keep it WAY away from any cars or metallic surfaces.

Something like Zep deck or house cleaner at a strong dilution (or straight) will do the trick. You will likely need a brush to get in any crevasses.

More sealant over NuFinish.
