Default Oil Remover receipe

Whiting is calcium carbonate usually mined from chalk deposits.
It's main use is as an absorbent. Fullers earth or diatomaceous earth will
probably work just as well.
The solvent depends on what your removing the oil from.
If it's your tie, I would use carbo chlor.
If it is your driveway, I would use kerosene.

Any diy's for this stuff? I've heard "whiting" and solvent, but,
what the heck is "whiting"? And which solvent?

The commercial is about $18 for 24 oz. Like to make a couple of
gallons.


thanks
