Concrete Cleaner
 
Tried vinegar, water, purple power, baking soda.
The stains are half as bad. Anyone come up with something better that can do the job cleaning concrete. Typical oil spots and rust water stains.
Thank you

Fresh oil - Kitty litter
Old oil - Super clean and sunlight.

Be careful it will eat away concrete. It will help with the rust (not oil) have plenty of water available to rinse off and follow trail as it will leave a stain of the water trail on your concrete if not scrubbed off well.

Mike, KNOWS. I wouldn't use muriatic acid if you've never worked with it before, surface degradation and cracks are a common result. Use Sure Kleen instead.

Flame away, If out side use small amount of reg gas scrub with a broom cover with floor dry sweep it up, it will be spotless. Just did it today on my sons driveway from a tranny line leak. Tom

I used drain cleaner and it worked well. About 90% successful.

Hardware guy said same thing and while a nice driveway when washing off I have about 3 puddle areas and the along driveway is slightly higher. So wouldn't be able to remove all acid. I had purple power it really help alot.
