Hi,

I made a small puddle of motor oil on my flagstone desk.

Tried:

Kitty litter type clay chips.

Dawn Dishwashing Detergent

Didnt remove all of the stain.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance .

Kitty litter type? Use regular, non-clumping k.l., mash it in hard with
your foot and let it soak for a couple of days when no rain expected.

It's a DESK :-)

no great answer today, but these guys are really contractors for the
most part, and their talk is interesting.


I've used kitty litter and it worked fine on concrete. Had to mash it
in hard and leave for a couple of days. As porous as concrete is, one
has to remember that k.l. won't soak up oil if the k.l. isn't ground in.
The concrete held onto some of the finer dust....didn't bother to hose
that off because it was an out of the way place. Condo neighbor stored
car stuff in a plastic cabinet outdoors and the full can of oil rusted
and ran out. On the water in Florida, it takes metal about 5 minutes to
rust.
