Polyurethane on Concrete
Has anyone had a good experience removing polyurethane from concrete? I got a quote of $1000 - it's a very small area. Anyone been there, done that?

I had a can of water-based poly leak through a garbage bag on my sidewalk. I got it off in five minutes with a 3500psi pressure washer.

Actually, now that I've thought about it, I put some K-Strip paint stripper on the urethane first to soften it up, then used the pressure washer. Wear goggles.

$1,000.00 seems like a lot of money. Oh it's New York City and contractors believe in the P.J. Barnum philosophy. How about charging fairly for time, material and reasonable profit.

... especially when you can buy a 2000psi pressure washer for under $200.
