Removing PVC primer stain before floor coating?

Hi folks,
Looking to do the floor in the garage in my new house with some form of coating. I haven't decided specifically which one yet, although SPGX is probably the top candidate at the moment.

Problem is there's about a 3"x3" stain on the concrete where some PVC pipe primer spilled. The floor is not sealed and seems to absorb water pretty quickly. Floor is about 5 years old. I know how to deal with oil stains before coating, is there anything special to do for pvc primer?

Thanks!

I would start by using acetone or MEK on it. Soak it and then do some scrubbing with a nylon brush and then begin dabbing it up.

For your future reference PVC Primer is also available in clear. I discovered this after I had to clean up a stain caused by my sloppy use on colored floor.

The primary reason PVC primer is colored is so its obvious that primer was used.

Great, thanks for the info! I'll get to work on it with some acetone and see how it goes. And buy the clear stuff next time!
