How the hell do i get rid of them!? the putoline spray on wax just brushed off the drive. The stuff i've got now is some Holts stuff that has a rather putrid green shade to it. But it just will not shift off my driveway!

Any tips?

Jack

some industrial degreaser, the stuff they use to clean up oil perhaps?

try fairy liquid mixed with sand and water to degrease it, and scrub into the road. might work....lol

Is it the Holts stuff from Halfords? It's like fucking shaving foam innit...

Wait until you clean your bike, took me ages and ruined a brush.

Won't be buying it again.

That's the stuff. Got a nice bit of fling off it, all over my shiney rims...

WD40 should get it off the bike, but last time that got on the driveway, it stained the flags lol

I'll try the sand and soapy water Thumbs Up

Hi for the next time and I know this works a treat - get soil/sand and put it over the oil when it first been spilled. Then the soils soaks the biggest amount up, brush it up and then yr ready to use the degreaser. Cillit Bang believe it or not is not too bad - works a treat! Finally if still have stains (I doubt you will) jet washer the bugger.

I just found out fairy liquid works a treat..

my drippages were all over yard, when it rained they went technicolour all over yard,

didnt fancy it on my tyres so knicked moms fairy liquid.

was soo cool, literally put a drip in a puddle and watch the technicolour retreat to the edge of the puddle at lightning speed Thumbs Up

hehe highly amused..

mom isn't Laughing
