I worked for a law firm that represented a hazardous waste cleanup company.
While speaking to the owner I asked him some questions about what he uses to
"mop up" oil spills and a few days later one of his employees dropped off 2
bags of cleaner upper for free.
While disassembling my motor a few months back I spilled oil in my driveway
thinking I got all the oil out and the stuff he sent worked great. A clay
mixture that sucked it right of the pavement. I don't know the name of the
product as I took the stuff from the bag and put it into a garbage can with
wheels as the original bags were slightly damaged.
