Darn, now the secret's out. Tide's my secret degreaser. I have soaked
some of the nastiest, greasiest stuff overnight in a bucket with a scoop
or two of Tide in a couple gallons of water. Works as well or better than
the high-priced cleaners.

<excerpt><excerpt><bigger>This is NOT a smart-a**ed answer, but concrete,

The problem is that with  the porosity of the concrete, the oil has
leached down into it for a quarter  inch or so.  Other option is to leave
it alone.  after a year or so it  will blend in.  Yes, I used to own a

</excerpt>Sorry about this but I don't know who else to ask.  My '87

diameter of a tennis ball when it is parked after use.  Bad
enough,<underline>    but how do you get the stain off the concrete
driveway? </underline> I have<underline>    </underline>tried two
different driveway cleaners and several home brews but nothing    seems
to work.  Forget the $450 for the power steering,  the    driveway just
cost me $6000 ! Your help please.
