Oil stains on driveway
« on: April 15, 2014, 05:19:41 pm »
Hi guys,
Can anyone advise what's best for taking off oil stains on mono block driveway and where I could buy it. Presently power-washing it but oil stains refusing to move

Thanks in advance

This happens to me sometimes. I use TFR from jennychem(+ a scrubbing brush). Horrible stuff, works well.

Used it once and it worked well. It was fresh ish oil tho (2 months old)

Used it older stains, it does remove them but leave kinda a shadow.

you need clay floor granules that garage workshops use. sprinkle a good layer or even the whole bag onto the oil and cover it over with a plastic bag to keep the rain off . leave it on for a week and itll draw out all the oil
