cat litter absorbs it and brake cleaner should get most of it off

throw some kitty litter on it, in the morning use some grease cutting soap and scrub the shit outta it. theres some stuff simple green i believe that works **** well.

if nothing else then baking soda...saw dust works okay if it is still "wet".

muratic acid can get up some of the stains BUT VERY VERY *****T SURE YOU ARE IN A VERY WELL VENTILLATED AREA. Use fans windows etc.

yup use the kitty litter sand etc, then I used oxi clean and that works great even on cloths. Thats the only stuff I found to get oil out of cloths and not have spots etc.
