I have a lot of sleepers forming retaining walls, with this hot weather they are exuding a thick tar like substance, which I assume is creosote. Any ideas of an economical way of either stopping this of covering the sleepers? The damned stuff gets everywhere working or walking by them! I am not concerned about the EEC directive, just the mess. It's more likely to be tar, creosote dries out. Try scraping it off and blinding the residue with sand. You could go over it with with a blowlamp and scrape even more off, I suppose. BTW - cross-posting is much nicer than multi-psoting! If someone will x-psot this reply, it will be helpful, for some reason I can't! |
