Removing oil stains from your concrete driveway

3/29/2023

 
Removing oil stains from a concrete driveway can be a bit challenging, but it is possible with the right tools and techniques. Here are some steps you can follow to remove oil stains from your concrete driveway:
  1. Absorb the oil: Use a clean rag or paper towels to absorb as much of the oil as possible from the surface of the concrete.
  2. Apply a degreaser: Purchase a degreaser specifically designed for removing oil stains from concrete. Follow the instructions on the label and apply the degreaser to the oil stain. Let it sit for the recommended amount of time, typically 10-15 minutes.
  3. Scrub the stain: Use a stiff-bristled brush or a power washer to scrub the oil stain. Scrub in a circular motion, focusing on the stain itself but also covering the surrounding area.
  4. Rinse with water: Rinse the area with a hose or power washer to remove the degreaser and any remaining oil.
  5. Repeat if necessary: If the stain is still visible, repeat the process until it is removed.
  6. Try other methods: If the degreaser and scrubbing method does not work, you can try other methods such as using baking soda or kitty litter to absorb the oil, or using a commercial oil stain remover.
It's important to note that the longer the oil stain has been on the concrete, the more difficult it will be to remove. It's best to tackle the stain as soon as possible to prevent it from setting in.  Some helpful information brought to you by Jacksonville concrete.
