How can I remove melted balloons from my brick patio?

Question

Some uninflated balloons melted on my brick patio and have left a slimy residue that water, soap and a sponge have not been able to remove. Any ideas? Thanks!

Answer 1

Have you thought of trying ice?

Ice cubes work well @ getting gum out so, maybe, it will work on your melted balloons too. Give it a try...

Answer 2

Use ice. That'll chill it to the point where you should be able to remove it.

Answer 3

get some brown paper and put it on top of the balloons then put something on this that will melt the balloons, they will then stick to the paper and be removed from the patio.

Answer 4

I like to use WD_40 that will remove every stick thing I know.

I hope this works out for you

Answer 5

They sell a brick paver cleaner at most garden supply centers. I recently did all my pavers with it. You will need a power washer to spray off the heavy stuff then brush on the cleaner and rinse. After that you can also purchase a brick paver sealer to apply to the pavers. It makes them look brand new. My pavers were four and five years old, now they look like they were just installed. Or you take the easy way and can call a landscaper that does this type of work and pay him to do it. I know about this because my hubby and I own a landscape/hardscape business. Good luck!
