Question from ellenelle
My husband spilled motor oil on the cement floor of our garage, leaving a patch of around 12 inches diameter after he blotted it up with paper towels. Of course, it still smells really bad. Does anyone know of any way I can get the rest of it up, preferably using some kind of enzymatic product that will degrade it into harmless components?
Thanks,
Ellen

First you need to absorb the oil into some material to remove it, such as unscented kitty litter or sawdust.
Then apply something that breaks down grease, such as soap, and scrub it with a brush until the residue is removed.
