Discoloured Concrete
Dear Aunt Daisy, My concrete steps are green owing to the wet season, and no amount of scrub‘bing will clean them. They do look so dirty. Can you tell me anything to use
to remove it?

:How about spraying the concrete with some fresh mixture? Or apply that popular dressing, either red or green, which is so much used now for concrete paths and porches. You put it on with a brush, and it is waterproof and won’t rub oft. The red is particularly nice for steps. It is for concrete, or bricks, or unglazed tiles. Hardware shops, will know what I mean, or you could send me a stamped addressed envelope for the trade name.
