James Bandit
€ 55,95
Removes oil and grease stains from porous surfaces without scrubbing or brushing.
James Bandit is a powerful stain remover for oil and grease stains on porous materials. Think of stains from barbecue grease, deep-fryer grease, oil or other greasy dirt that has seeped into stone, wood, concrete or brick.
The product works in a unique way: you pour James Bandit onto the stain, after which it draws the embedded dirt out of the surface. As it sets, the product forms a dry powder that you can easily remove. This is how you tackle stubborn grease stains in a targeted way, without having to scrub and without putting unnecessary strain on the surface.
Use James Bandit when oil or grease has seeped into a porous surface and normal cleaning is no longer sufficient. This often happens with natural stone, wood, concrete, cement or brick, for example after barbecuing, cooking, deep-frying, doing DIY or spilling oil.
On porous materials, grease quickly penetrates deeper into the surface. As a result, a dark patch often remains visible, even after you’ve cleaned the top. James Bandit is designed for this sort of set-in stain. The product effectively draws the dirt out of the pores of the surface, so that the stain may visibly fade or disappear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below you will find the most frequently asked questions. Is yours not on the list? That gives us a good reason to get in touch with one another. Our customer service team will be happy to help you.
Does James Bandit also work on old oil or grease stains?
Yes, even older stains can often still be visibly improved. The deeper and longer the stain has been in the surface, the greater the chance that you will need to repeat the treatment.
How do I know if my substrate is porous enough?
A porous surface absorbs moisture or grease. If a drop of water is quickly absorbed into the material, there is a good chance that the surface is porous. If water remains entirely on the surface, the substrate may have been sealed or treated.
Can James Bandit also be used outdoors?
Yes, this is possible on suitable porous surfaces, such as natural stone, concrete, cement or brick. Do ensure that the surface is dry and that no rain or moisture gets on it whilst the product is setting.
What should I do if powder gets stuck in seams or pores?
Remove as much powder as possible with a vacuum cleaner. You can gently loosen any remaining debris with a dry, soft brush and then vacuum it up again.
Can I use James Bandit on treated or impregnated natural stone?
That depends on the finish. A protective coating or impregnation may affect how it works. You should therefore always test the product on a small, inconspicuous area first before treating the whole stain.
