Removing Oil Stain from Concrete

[GSX-Runner]

My friends POS car dumped about a quart of black oil on my new driveway. I wiped it up and now there is a huge oil mark. I need to get this stain out. I have a power washer but its like -10 out. I need some tips. Thanks :frown:

They also sell some stuff at home depot or lowes, that gets oil off the ground. Its called like absorb or something. Its like kitty litter times 10. :top:
Dont wait too long to do it though.

Yeah I used to work at a gas station and I used to go out in the parking lot and use kitty litter to soak up the oil stains left behind by customers' cars. It worked like a charm.

Kitty or Mr. Clean let it set for a minute or two and power washer :top:

Just the power washer by itself should do the trick.

A power washer won't remove the actual stain..just the remaining oil that's on the surface of the concrete.

I was able to get out some oil stains from the driveway by spraying Gunk, Scrubbing / Letting it sit for 15 minutes and spraying it off.

wd-40 will do the trick
