Oil Eater Original 1 Gallon Cleaner, Degreaser - Dissolve Grease Oil and Heavy-Duty Stains – Professional Strength

If you have old oil stains on your old concrete that has likely not been resealed properly, and youexpect this to make your concrete look like new, that’s ridiculous. However, if you were looking to remove the vast majority of old oil stains, this product is great. I used it full strength and let it sit on the stains for three hours. After a little scrubbing with a floor brush and thoroughly rinsing, it did a great job. I especially like that it is safe to rinse off onto black top and into the grass as long the grass is pre-wetted and it is thoroughly rinsed off the black top and into the grass. Just to be on the safe side I did pool together the vast majority of what did not dry on the concret and soaked it up with kitty litter. A floor scrub brush with a squeegee on one side made the job easy. I purchased one on Amazon that was only $10.

I use this for parts cleaning because it is water soluble. I have also used this as an engine degreaser. With the price that they want for a can of engine degreaser. I decided why not try this. At the price for this I decided to just spray it on fully concentrated. Just spraying it on with a spray bottle removes grime. I spray everything really good and give it a few minutes to sit. Then I spray it off with full pressure of the hose. I usually spray it all down again with Oil Eater and do it again. I was kind of low on this product the other day that I diluted it 1:1 to clean everything under my front wheel well. I am redoing all the bushings and ball joints on my truck. After removing everything, I decided to spray everything down and clean it so there wasn't dirt and grime falling on me when I put it back together. Even with it diluted 1:1 it worked great. The next day I was looking at it, and everything was actually clean enough to paint everything in that area. So, I painted everything, and it seems to have stuck very well. I opened up the box of my new bottle of Oil Eater and it says it is now 3x more concentrated than before. I am sure that you could dilute it a lot more and still get a good clean. At around $20 a gallon, I have no problem spraying it at full concentration. I don't scrub anything. Just spray it on and hose it off. It also works great to clean the underneath of your vehicle if you need to work on it. You would be amazed at how clean it makes it just doing that. It makes working under your vehicle easier. Without having all the oil and road grime caked with dirt falling in your face. It will not completely clean everything off under your vehicle just by spraying it on and rinsing it off, but it makes a huge difference. I get my engine just as clean doing this method as the spendy can of engine degreaser gets it.

Just a warning if you use this stuff in your parts washer. Being water based does not mean it's wimpy. There's not much of a warning on the label about contact besides keep out of eyes and may irritate skin. It's now got an improved label than what's on the product pictures here. I got a bit carried away the first time I used it (because it worked so well). I had safety glasses on, but not gloves. This was a mistake. About an hour of blissfully cleaning parts and my more exposed left hand was pruney. Then my skin was tight and my finger nails turned yellowish once it dried out. Lots of lotion later and my entire hand peeled 2 days later. My finger nails have not recovered and probably won't until they grow out. Learn from my mistake - PLEASE WEAR SAFETY GLASSES AND GLOVES!Above that, this stuff is really impressive for water based degreaser. I see some people complain about corrosion, This might come from dilution with water? I use it undiluted. I cleaned raw aluminum parts, painted parts, plastic parts whatever. It cleaned everything neatly. I guess with the oil from the parts getting recirculated with the solvent puts it on the parts. They dry with a bit of an oily sheen. No corrosion. It will take weak paint coatings off parts if you go too hard. Otherwise besides the skin issue, it definitely gets the work done quickly.

This stuff is great for almost anything. Grease, coolant, ATF, brake fluid, takes care of all of it. you can even water it down if you need, for smaller, less oily cleanups. Works on most of our stains within 5-10min, that have been around for years. Nothing else comes close to this. Used it to clean tools from tree resin, great.
