This happened on a public road in my city last year. The solution was to saw cut around the stain, grind up a section of road and re pave.

Hate to say it but your driveway is shot, jackhammer time.

can always go back over the driveway with a colored driveway stain.. obviously use an oil based and not late product.

If you can find out the rating of the concrete that was used for the driveway may or may not help. I think any mix less than five thousand pounds rating will be very porous to the oil. At five thousand pound strength and above concrete becomes waterproof. Any surface cut attempted on weaker concrete will not get the stain I believe.

You want to lift or float the bulk of the oil creating the stain out of the concrete first. You might be able to clean it as much as possible and have a coat of the other common driveway material installed.

Muturic or hydrachloric acid are the same and both will attack the concrete. Depending on the solutions strength and time on the surface. It may be awhile until the wife will allow you to change her oil.

Just tell the inquisitor general that it is a blood stain from a drug deal gone wrong.

Plan C, tar it?

That only works if you have about 3 W140 S600 black sedans parked in your driveway.

white-out?

Ah just paint the rest of the driveway with oil and call it s day.....

I wonder if your home owners insurance might help out with this. Todays policies or at least ours allows for some owner participation in events. Maybe worth a call to them? If I remember deductables if any are very small for certain catagories of claims.

Once the bulk of the oil is lifted out. A stain remover of some type might deal reasonably well with it. For all I know it might even bleach out. You might examine concrete cleaning on the web for suggestions even.

I support this initiative.

Welcome to the club!

I had a similar situation more than 20 years ago. Granted, it was not nearly as severe, since the container did not turn over. It just flipped a fair amount of the oil out. After some heavy wire brush work with diesel and then soapy suds, I spread a goodly amount of dry cement powder (sackcrete) over the remains. Then lightly worked that in. Some of this was actually done out in the street; and though it happened more than 20 years ago, the 'cement patch' out there is still visible !!

Use brake cleaner, and then pressure hose it generously.

Once its dry, run to your local harware store and get some concrete paint that closely matches the driveway color. Just pain the portion of the driveway that's stained, leaving the rest. I think this is reasonable, and the HOA can't argue that either.

In time, the concrete paint will come off, but it will also take some more of the oil that seeps up with it, so you should be fine in a few years, and not have to continue repainting it.

This happened to me once, i picked up the phone and called the fire department!
Ten minutes later they were on the scene with special chemicals used to clean up after traffic collisions. Didn't have to pay a dime and they were actually pleased that i had this idea of calling them instead of me making an even bigger mess of it. This is a environmental accident and there are agencies that respond to that.
