 I have spilt some paint and I am struggling to fully remove it.

 

This is the paint I spilt. It is for metal and wood.

I have got most of it off by cannot get the remaining bits off. 

 

These are the 2 products I have used. As well as the products I have been using a hard wire scrubbing brush and a jet washer.

The second one I tried is a thick white liquid.

Can somebody recommend something that will get rid of the remaining paint.

It's a good idea and can work.. but always check with an SE before you do this as the effective depth and end restraint conditions of the trades can change massively and make things unsafe.

But if cause you fill the gaps with concrete - listed building control will never notice 😕

It looks like an upside down utility paving slab. £4.20 at B & Q
