Got a few oils stains on my drive (block paving) can anyone recommend anything to get them off!, have seen this: Gunk Driveway Cleaner, any good?
Jizer
Fairly liquid.
Stiff brush.
Hose pipe.
20 odd years ago the drive shaft oil seal on my car let go and ruined my mum and dad's drive. The above combination saved me.
Swarfega oil and grease remover, from toolstation, band q, screwfix about 9 quidfor 5 litres, and cleans bikes and chains well, biodegradeable and doesnt burn flesh.
Anti freeze some sand and a stiff brush.
I'm sure a bottle of full fat proper coke works... Google it
Yoghurt.
Time and British weather
I always use cat litter---spread it over the spill, let it sit a while, then sweep up. Get's most of the oil out of the porous concrete. Worked as good or better than a couple of specific products made to remove oil.
Gunk is the best
Neat washing up liquid, cover the full patch and leave overnight....then hose (or in my case just let rain and nature do the work for you).
If I spill some and I am quick enough, I cover it in Coke and it does not stain.
If you can't get the stains out just replace the stained blocks. Drill each stained block, insert rawlplug and screw, grip screw with molegrips (or similar) and lift out. Use rubber mallet to bash a replacement block into place. 8)
