wurth products makes a brake cleaner on steriods. i think all the bottle says is solvent. the salesmen let me test it on an oil spot thats been on my shop floor for over a year. sprayed it and it came right up as if i just spilled it on their within the last minute. if i can get a name and/ part number ill get it up for you.

Soak the oil up with his Elmo doll.

Any other awesome manly ways of getting rid of the oil? Pressure washer? Dragons?

Orange cleaner worked for me...

Dropped some gear oil on the nice drive way bricks and couldn't get it out...
Sprayed some orange cleaner on it and let it soak in for about 30min then washed it off with the garden hose.

What oil spots?

Not sure if it will work for you because you might have too much oil.

I would avoid brake cleaner because it is way to harsh and hosing that stuff to drainage pipes isn't a great idea. Try the orange cleaner, then the brake cleaner.

Looneybomber- that's funny! bet he had a blast helping you out.

haha good luck with the cleanup.

Brake cleaner.

Aww man, I miss read that thinking break fluid...

Ok so cleaning 5qts of oil and some break fluid...I'm liking the dead hooker idea.

Side note: One of my wife's friends is now a professional escort. $1000 a night! I mean she's good looking and all, but I would not pay $1k!

Brick is a fu*kton easier to clean than concrete.

I still suggest you use the muriatic acid. You will need to dilute it 10 to 1.

My dad has two different sized oil drain pans at his house (where I do my oil changes). The smaller one is great for our Maximas, but too small for trucks, the Q, and the LS. The second oil change I ever did on the Q, I sort of forgot (habit of grabbing the same one for the last ten years will do that). Well...I DID remember...when I saw the small pan overflowing. OOOPS. Cleaned it up well, though, and there's no sign of the spill on the driveway now.
