Garden Genie - Oil Patch Cleaner Removes Tough Stains from Driveways & Patios - 5 Litre

Got this to clean large oil patch on the garage floor. Worked a treat in 10mins but please note - this was oil from a chain saw not old engine oil so don't know if it works as well on that. Left the floor v v clean

That the product does exactly what it was made for to get oil stains off floors

But didn't get rid of stain on natural stone

Excellent

Disapointed with this. Poured the whole lot on the oil spillages on my drive, let it soak in for 30 minutes and brushed/ aggravated it with a stiff yard brush. Rinsed off with a pressure washer and nothing... it's like I've used distilled water. Avoid.

Great stuff did exactly what it describes

I've not used it yet but hoping it works

Having had leaky cars parked on our grey brick driveway over the years, a 2x1 metre patch looked pretty dire. I had tried OT8 a couple of years ago, which is based on oil-eating bacteria, with minimal benefit. I tried again a couple of months ago, but no better. Reading the label again, it said "Not for use on synthetic oil stains. Mineral oils only." Aaaahhhh.....Modern multigrade oils are all synthetic, and I run even a 52 years-old car on these, which of course leaks! A Google search came up with your Oil Patch Cleaner, which one reviewer rated very highly, adding how he used it. I bought 5 litres, and as he reported, used it neat on the patch, then bass-broomed it in. He used a wire brush. He repeated this action twice more , then left it for an hour. I did exactly the same. I used 2.5 litres in total, quite a bit for a small area, and brushing it in prodced a lot of foaming brown-stained gunk. Not smelly, just obviously working.Pressure washing it off was a bit messy, as oily water went in all directions, but spraying the splashed areas washed it all off easily. I went off and let it dry out completely.What I then saw was pretty spectacular. I'd missed some outer spots, and not worked hard enough on the deepest stains, but very acceptable. The stains must date back 15 years.After is on the left, before is on the right when fitting our new garage door. I was deeply sceptical that I was going to get any better than a 50% job, but I was absolutely wrong. 90% now and enough product for another couple of goes. I will chalk mark the area or spots this time, to be sure of getting it all. And delighted to be proved wrong!With 5 cars ranging from 52 to 21 years old, this problem will return, but no longer need I have to put up with the consequences.
