I recently had a gas & oil leak from my car onto my driveway as well as my street. I am trying to remove the stains. Do you have any suggestions. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Easy solution. Just pour neat washing up detergent on stains. Soaks in and gradually lifts up oil. Eventually concrete goes quite white in colour. Can take a week to completely remove with more detergent added as required.
