    Jeff,
    Use 10oz of oxalic acid per gallon of hot water.Apply with a pump srayer and let it sit for 10 min. Gone! Just rinse with ball valve and your done!!

    I was wondering if ox would work, never had fertilizer stains to deal with before. They like keeping this property pretty spotless, we do all the buildings every 6 months

    Thanks I'll try it tomorrow

    I just did a huge driveway with rust and fertilizer stains and alot of acorn staining. I mixed up 16lb's of OX with 35 gal of HOT WATER and the woman called me the next day and told me it looks like I poured a new Driveway.

    I have tried many different products on those type stains, nothing get's it done better for me than OX.
