How to Remove an Oil Stain from Concrete

How to remove an oil stain from concrete? That's the question. In this video, you'll learn about which methods will help you remove stains from concrete and which were duds. Stains can be miserable eyesores on your garage floor or driveway. I let the one in this video sit there for 7 years. It might be out of laziness or the fact that I didn't know where to start.

So I compared 4 different cleaning methods:
1. Kitty Litter
2. WD-40
3. TSP
4. Drylok Etch

The kitty litter and WD-40 didn't work out so well for me, but that's not to say you shouldn't give them a shot. TSP and Drylok Etch did the trick. It might take you several applications (3-4) to get your concrete to look like new. And you'll have to use a stiff wire brush. But isn't better to go from having a blotchy mess to a great looking floor or driveway?
