Like if there’s a fire around or you put some fire plank directly on the patio; the concrete surface gets those dirty black burn marks. So, how do you get burn marks off concrete?
Well, getting rid of the burn marks is a pretty annyoying task; but the good news is that it is quite doable.
But here’s a trick; while you’re washing the concrete or removing the black stuff out make sure not to damage the protective surface of the concrete. We don’t want to make our concrete open to trouble.
So, while you’re trying to washing concrete, be wary of using any strong chemicals. I’ve been seeing people using harsh acid-based cleaners. But that for sure damages the concrete. Instead, you can use gentle washing agents such as baking soda, dish soap, and water.
There are several methods you can try to get your concrete looking like new again.

Well, a pressure washer may do the trick for you. Or if you don’t have a pressure washer, a high-pressure nozzle on a garden hose can work too. A powerful and direct stream of water directed at the burn mark may be able to remove the stain from concrete.
Now this method is pretty easy and doesn’t require some special tools. But still it may not work for some deep spots or areas. For such you need more elbow grease.

Powdered dish detergent is an effect and gentle cleaner. We all know this. So, Try this method for a quick stain removal method.
In a large bucket, combine 1 gallon of hot water and 1 cup of powdered dish detergent.

Our last and the super-amazing trick is Baking Soda Method
Baking soda is a powerful natural cleaning agent. It can remove many different kinds of stains, even on concrete, without leaving any residue behind.
Pour water over the burned area.
Make a thick paste with baking soda and water. Mix in a small bowl; be sure there is enough to cover the entire burned area.
Spread the paste over the burned marks and let sit for about one hour.
With a soft bristle brush, scrub the concrete.
Rinse over the area by spraying it down with a hose or pouring a bucket of water over it.
