OK, that in itself doesn't seem at all interesting, but the circumstances might.

Someone did a burnout on the checkerboard tiles at the plant. The owner of the company and I, and virtually everyone else who walks in, thinks it VERY cool. The owner of the building was NOT amused. So...

I got the dubious "honor" this morning of trying to clean the tiles. My best result has been a soaking of Greased Lightning and scraping with a razor blade. That gets about 80-85% of it.

Has anyone else run into this problem?

Any ideas what else to try?

Try gasoline if no one minds the smell. A little on a rag took rubber marks off a rental car pretty damn good. It was funny because I had my Aunt, Dad, and Grandmother questioning me about the gas, it pissed me off. If you are too damned lazy to tell the rental place there are marks on the car don't question me when I take the crap off.

My 17yo daughter put a set of marks on checker board ramp off my enclosed trailer the first time she loaded the car. I haven't removed them though. It's too much fun telling people how they got there.

Magic Eraser would be worth a try.
