How to remove burnouts

A friend of mine was doing a burnout in a housing devolpment a month ago and got got by a cop. He went to court and the Judge gave him 5hrs community service and he now has the remove the mark totaly. Any ideas? Would some bleach and water work... (I think this is the right place to post this) Thanks

i dont have i clue. i know bleach and water wont work. maybe a wire brush and some kind of muratic acid?? i tried removing some marks on my shop floor and couldnt. it was concrete and not asphalt and also it was smoother and not porous

Muratic acid. Great idea! if you don't want any concrete left lmao. :P

I think a Toothbrush should be a pretty good idea for him, he's a dumbass for doing them in a housing development.

one big ass toothbrush, and believe me, it will fill his 5 hours

We use to have a green brush that had like green plastic-ky bristles that was great for getting black marks of our cement. Maybe you could find something like that at the store. the bristles were really stiff.

Was it like a wire brush, or not quite as stiff (I can see the jokes already)? I'll tell him about this, I wonder if any of the local automotive shops carry it....

Degreaser or sugar soap.

Fuck removing the mark. Just lay rubber down on the rest of the car park :D

Muratic acid. Great idea! if you don't want any concrete left lmao. :P

what are you talking about? I've used muriatic acid and a wire brush to get spray paint off concrete before... Guess what? I've still got a patio.

Gasoline will remove it......use a large quantity though.

Diesel or kerosene would be safer and work just as well. I used kerosene to get the burn out marks from my tractor off of our cement driveway and it worked well.

Naw, use gasoline and then light it on fire afterwards just to piss off the man. :thumbsup:

He needs to make some tires out of asphalt and then do a burnout in the same place. I guess that would be a burn-in though. LOL.

Here's a good video on how to make one.

Instead of suggesting different ways of removing the skid marks, why don't you just not make them? Burnouts have no purpose other than to make you look like stupid and send a foul smell around the area. Solution: don't do it. Problem solved.

Umm..except for he's required to remove them? Problem not solved.

You guys missed my point about using gasoline.....gasoline will actually break down the tar holding the blacktop together......
Give them a couple of weeks, instead of the skid marks they'll have a nice pothole to bitch about.

Okay... I was simply asking as a favor for my friend, I didn't want any rants (although the Strees Release forum you could post that in there). As previously stated I didn't do the burnout.

I will tell him about the diesel fuel, he used his diesel truck to do the burnout so I know he's got some.

Kind of off topic, but can you get a reckless driving ticket for doing a burnout if the car isn't moving?

I don't think that would be allowed in a public area due to possible pollution concerns. The gas stations in my area freak out if you spill a little gas and you have to report it to them so they can clean it up right away. Use gas, kerosene or diesel and you'll probably get the EPA, DEC , and Haz Mat breathing down your neck in no time.

^Anything that will remove burnt rubber that is now effectively part of the asphalt is bound to cause some pollution. Use diesel and then clean it up with detergent.

I was mainly referring to federal and state laws governing cleanups and the types of items used to clean. Yeah something like gas will clean it up but in the eyes of the law is it the most environmentally friendly cleaner to do the job? You don't want to get in any further trouble with the law over what is used to clean the burn marks. Maybe the individual should find out what is acceptable to use to clean it up first. Laws governing the handling and disposing of harmful items like petroleum products are getting more stringent every year. All one has to do is look at the new emission laws, and other laws governing repair shops and other businesses who handle stuff like that to get a feel on how serious the government treats hazardous items.

Well then, tell your friend not to do burnouts anymore. That way, he won't have to clean them up.

except... he still has to clean up the one he made. so start being helpful, please.

Reading > You

:loser:

What about contacting industrial cleaning supply houses in the area for suggestions, especially if they supply cleaners for garages, parking lots, or businesses that clean asphalt. Or you could even contact the local DPW, and see if they use anything.

way to go killswitch. I think you really taught his friend a lesson there. I have to agree with the bell pepper eating man... problem not solved. Great input though, really.

Andy... you did a burn out in a tractor? lol, awesome? Got a video?

Fuck removing the mark. Just lay rubber down on the rest of the car park :D

i agree, give it a try lol

Umm..except for he's required to remove them? Problem not solved.


Yeah, nothing would get solved by doing nothing. Although he did have a good solution for next time.

Use a Jackhammer












Actually use olive oil or any other vegitable oil, its Biodegradable (Keeping EPA off your Back)

hahahhaha, i was thinking the same shit.

Theres a chemical called Citrosol (sp?) Its basically varsol but its enviromentally friendly, well about as enviromentally friendly as you can get for a solvent. Just give him a tooth brush and some of that.

[QUOTE=RickwithaTbird]... problem not solved. [QUOTE]

I know this doesn't solve his current problem. It will, however, solve future burnout problems. What I meant was he shouldn't have made the burnout in the first place. That way he wouldn't have to worry about cleaning it up.

You know what you need to have a little fun once in a while. Live a little. I would have most likely done a burnout. I do it at Walmart. :iceslolan

Mkay

Okay, we've established he's a fucking moron by doing the burnout. STOP TELLING HIM NOT TO DO IT AGAIN. Just give advice on cleaning the shit up or stfu.

Tell him not to do it again






























cheap thrills :icon16:

Take his car/truck away, And make him pay for them to take the concreate up & replace it. That way he has to PAY for his CRIME.

gosh grandma.

what is up your ass? You and killswitch act like youve never broken a rule when you thought you could get away with it.

YEAH RIGHT!

Depends on the roading surface,I guess.Concrete should be fairly easy with a waterblaster, but porous surfaces such as asphalt would be trickier.

Throw it back at the court and ask them to specify the method.Argue that the responsibility for deciding the cleanup method should rest with the owners of the property [in order to minimise any further damage to the surface].It's a reasonable demand that the offender make good the damage, but a bit pointless if he doesn't have access to the tools and skills to do the job effectively.

gosh grandma.

YEAH RIGHT!

Breaking rules is dumb.Getting caught is dumber.Use a bit of common sense when doing burnouts.Empty parking lots and industrial parks are safer than housing projects, and fewer potential witnesses to screw you over.Your man can count himself lucky.Law here is that the cops can impound your vehicle on the spot for 28 days for 'sustained loss of traction',i.e. burnouts, donuts or just plain bad launches.


http://www.police.govt.nz/service/road/boyracerdetails.php

You must not operate a motor vehicle in a race or in an unnecessary exhibition of speed or acceleration on a road (unless authorised by law).

You must not, without reasonable excuse, operate a motor vehicle on a road in a manner that causes the vehicle to undergo sustained loss of traction (unless authorised by law).

If you commit either of these offences the maximum is 3 months imprisonment, or $4,500 in fines, and a minimum period of disqualification of 6 months.

Doing burnouts/handrake squealies/drifting/launches = :thumbsup:




Getting caught doing burnouts/squealies/drifting/launches = :loser:



Realising that you have to pay $300 for new tyres after doing too many burnouts/launches/handbrake squealies/drifting = :disappoin





It's not illegal if you don't get caught and it's not stupid if you don't endanger anyone.

taranaki... that was pretty high and mighty. I was not saying that we should all just go burn rubber everywhere without using judgement. I was referring to the harsh reaction by "modifiedcars".

"make him PAY for his CRIME!!!" gimme a break

we all have broken rules at one time or another. Its not right to act like we are perfect just because someone else got caught. Sure it was dumb to do it in a housing project, but have we all not been in a situation where we did something against our best judgement?



"its not illegal if you don't get caught"... in a sense, it isn't. If you use your judgement and break rules when there is no chance of somebody seeing, and no chance of harming other people, or getting caught, then whats really the problem? If you are responsible enough to not get caught, then you aren't causing a problem. But if you are irresponsible enough to get caught, then you SHOULD be punished. Of course there are flaws and exceptions to that, but in some cases, it couldn't be more right.

So...Suggesting that people use a bit of common sense is 'high and mighty'?

Call me high and mighty then.Seems to me that you have an attuitude problem with anyone who doesn't see things your way.

Breaking rules is dumb.
I think that is kind of high and mighty. And then saying that along with quoting me for saying they act like they never have broken rules.

Where did I say that using judgement is high and mighty? I don't have an attitude problem with anyone who disagrees with my views, but I disagree with the way you act like "the good child" whenever somebody defends another person's imperfections. You always say i tlike it's cut and dry. It's not. We all make mistakes, and we all have bad judgement sometimes. You can't grill people for messing up unless they do it consistently. In this case we don't know. Maybe he is just as smart as any of us, but knows he made a poor decision. You act like that is impossible.

whatever:rolleyes:

I'm 43, I have learned a few things on my orbits around this planet.One is that rules don't just get made to piss people off, they are there to protect them from their own stupidity.It follows that if you believe this way that you must also believe that breaking rule is dumb.That's my opinion, if you dont care for it, it's no loss to me.

I am not saying there is anything wrong with breaking the rules, and I'm not saying that we shouldn't try to abide by rules, I'm simply saying that at some point or another, we all make mistakes, and we should be given the opportunity to learn from it before we are lynched.

I as well, think it was dumb to burnout in a housing project. Not to mention rude, and disruptive. But I won't burst onto the scene with Ricks Commandments and say that breaking rules is dumb, as if I have never done it.

Did anyone make an appropriate suggestion to the kid to clean up the burnout mark ?

Or has this thread been hijacked into a discussion on the morals of breaking the law ? :dunno:

I'd use parking-lot colored spray paint, just cover it up. :grinyes:

best thing to do is burn it off. its rubber so heat it up till u can use like a paint scraper or something or just dig the asfault up an fill it with new asfault.

I would assume that there will be someone supervising him. I don't think it would be legal to burn it off, or pour gasoline on it, or kerosene, or anything like that. Just tell him to get a big ass industrial janitors brush, and scrape the shit out of it for 5 hours.

Pressure washer?

Well the first page has some good stuff. What ended up happening is this, my friend got permission from the judge and manager (of the housing devolpment) to use this chemical (I forgot what its called but its got a huge/long name) and poured that on th mark and went at it with a wire brush. He said it took about an hour (which didn't count for comm. service) but the mark is now gone. Thanks again for the suggestions guys
