HELP - how to get oil off the drive!

(1/4) > >>

Disco-andy:
I just changed the oil in 90, had had over flowed the catch tray I was using. my girl friend is home about 3 and there's a large oil stain on the drive( her house not mine!)

I have wiped up the worst of it and now covered in sand to soak up as much as possible,

Any one got any ideas on what might clean it up?

Its an old concrete drive.

thanks Andy

But on the positive side I worked out what the funny noise in the 90 was.

Lewis.J.P_1987:
Try cornflour to absorb the stain then wash away.

J.D.:
half a gallon of hyper clean and a stiff brush normally works fine.

Terranosaurus:
Neat washing up liquid or swarfega type had cleaner and then scrub it with a yard brush or hard scrubbing brush etc.

If you can lay your hands on it TFR (Traffic Film Remover) or caustic soda will break down the oil even further.
