Cleaning Stubborn Concrete Stains With This Household Drain Buster

  • Most of us have experienced the power of Drano for plumbing issues. However, it has a hidden talent: concrete stain cleaner. It could even be used to banish mold and mildew from your home as well!

    A few months ago I did a post on how to make your own firestarters using egg cartons, lint and wax. MELTED wax. Melted wax that I thought I could EASILY pour into the egg carton without making a mess! However, the hubster was NOT laughing about the aftermath. 🙁

    Anyway…I really DID feel bad about making such a mess, so when I heard that Drano can get stains off concrete, I was all over it!

    So I poured some of this $3.49 bottle of Drano Max Gel on the offending stains, including a small GREASE stain from the nearby gas barbecue. I let it sit for several minutes, then using an old grill brush that I only use for dirty jobs like this, I put in some elbow grease. Then I hosed it all off (making sure it didn’t run off into anything sensitive…like my plants).

    It actually came out a lot better than I thought it would! I BARELY had to scrub it at all and it was COMPLETELY gone.

    I tried this trick on TOUGH STAINS and was very pleased with the results. Imagine what it could do for mold and mildew stains.

    Have you tried this stain trick with Drano? Do you know of any other unique uses for Drano?
