while applying chain lube to my bike, some went on dads stained and stamped concrete driveway...

how do I clean it up?
I tried using washing powder and a scrubbing brush but it stayed stuck...

thanks :)

Although it did not get rid of the oil stains on the driveway. However it got rid of the rubber marks :devil2:

Tried dishwasher powder & water? Has worked for me in the past when I have spilt oil on concrete.

Engine degreaser makes it water soluble. Scrape as much as you can off first then use a stiff brush to work it in and hose off with water. Kero dilutes it and you could end up with a bigger stain. Whatever you use is going to leave a mark.

Yup, get the WareWhare de-greaser, it's thu schizz and is water-based so hoses off afterwards.

park a Mini-Chopper over the petrol..

then apply a bic lighter and break out the marshmellows... :rofl:
