There's some stuff in the road-mending trade that makes very quick work of all that ancient bitumen (or tar). Made by Colas and called Leoclean. You might get it off internet as they only have one or two product shops in the country. The industrial version is the bo****ks but not good to human flesh if left on too long and only comes in 5 gallon drums running in at £80 + vat. Its a bit like a super strong Gunk. |
