are a bit limited. Suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks !

You can buy good concrete cleaner/degreaser at autoparts stores. Castrol Superclean for example. Another solution is TSP (tri-sodium-phosphate) found at home improvement stores. Its a powder that you mix with water. Follow the mixing intructions and let it sit on the stain for about 20 min and rinse away with water.
