Grease on Concrete

[QansasjayhawQ]

They sell that grease remover at an autoparts that looks like cat litter. If you grind it in and let it sit it seems to suck it out. Then tide with warm water.

That would be Oil-Dri and that's what I have used to clean up grease stains on the patio and oil in the garage.

I´ve given up on that fight. :-?

Just pour grease as evenly as possible all over the concrete and it all looks nice and shiny.

that's what i do. :-D

anybody tried portland cement yet? It has always worked VERY WELL for me. Just pour it on and sweep over after a few hours

Good thing I didn't have a camera...the exploded, rocket-propelled hunk of concrete would have shattered the lens of my camera instead of catching me 1/2 inch away from my eyeball!! Whew!

At least you have a built in grease collection device now.:lol:

Try the Oil eater from Costco. It works well on my Patio. Just spray it down, scrub a little and hose off.

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT try to use a weed burner to burn the grease off! Apparently concrete explodes A LOT quicker than I expected...

haha I remember that :mrgreen:

Yup that works really good, makes it look almost new. We used to do it that way at the end of every day back when I worked in auto repair. We just had a broomstick with a chunk of 2X4 at the end to grind with, worked great.
