Hoping some people here may be able to help. I recent got some Sandstone paving laid down in my back garden. Now last week I needed to felt my shed roof so I was using some felt adhesive (Bitumen felt adhesive). I protected the sandstone beside the shed with a cover which worked well. After the job I was cleaning up and had some Bitumen on sole of my shoe and ended up walking on the sandstone. So I have a thin layer of Bitumen in places on the sandstone.

Any thoughts on best way to remove this? I could try a high powered pressure wafer which may work. Or try scrapping it off my may damage the sandstone. Just thought others may have some ideas.
