removing oil stains???
 

what the hell do you guys use to remove oil stains from the cement?? i'm looking for some household cleaners that can remove the ----, because i don't feel like spending an assload of money on some cleaner from autozone that won't work.

oh well, tell me what you've tried and what works. thanks.

Do a burnout on it

Re: removing oil stains???
 

hot water and dish soap if its fresh, or you can try and use comet with a wire brush :-\

Re: removing oil stains???
 

like travis said and then power wash it

Re: removing oil stains???
 

true that, anything else??

i don't think my mom would like the burnout 7 feet from my garage. plus, she's the one who's bitching about the stains. ------- oil leaks

is your laneway white cement?

Re: removing oil stains???
 

yes

Re: removing oil stains???
 

Kitty litter if it’s fresh.... and remember starter fluid will eat just about anything petroleum baised.

Re: removing oil stains???
 

comet and a good scrub brush

Re: removing oil stains???
 

tell your mom thats what she gets for using cement instead of asphalt....then dump oil on the whole thing to make it all look uniform

Re: removing oil stains???
 

well, if our house wasn't built 15yrs ago, we probly wouldn't have used the cement. funny with the oil thing though

Re: removing oil stains???
 

spray water, dump cat litter on it, use a push broom and rub it in, let it sit, wet it , use a broom again, then rinse, we did this to a freind drive way and it made the section we cleaned, cleaner than the rest of the driveway.

Re: removing oil stains???
 

just put a rug over it.. or like a planter..

no one will ever notice ;)

Re: removing oil stains???
 

i put dish soap by itself over the stain, and i let it dry up. then i wash it away and its nice and clean. sometimes i like to scrub the soap. into the cement. i dont ad water untill i want the soap and the oil gone. works really well on cloths too.

Re: removing oil stains???

hot hot hot sauce.

the kind that you taste and immediately lose your intestines through your sphincter.

Re: removing oil stains???
 

use WD-40 or brake cleaner

Re: removing oil stains???
 

I agree with last post.... Brake cleaner rocks!
You can spray carb cleaner (throttle body) on it and let it set a while...
