Cleaning Painted Driveway

The customer wants to get rid of the skid marks. Apparently, he used some degreaser to try to clean it up but it looks like the chem took the sheen off the surface. Can anyone with experiences in cleaning painted driveways make a suggestion on how to tackle this? Thank you for your help!

Walk away.

I’ve never cleaned a painted driveway. I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen a painted driveway. Painting a driveway seems like a horrible idea in general. Maybe it’s a thing in other parts of the country, but to my knowledge there isn’t really any paint that can withstand hot tires except epoxy. And epoxy turns brown in UV light.

I’ve washed some painted sidewalks and pool decks and stuff. It’s very delicate. I use super low pressure and I still wind up blowing off some paint.
