how to remove PS fluid from concrete?
how do i remove power steering fluid stains from concrete?
my wife's car blew a hole in one of her power steering hoses. it has already been replaced and she's good as new. however, she was parked in the driveway at the time i noticed. i didn't want her to move cuz i didn't want to burn up the pump, so i changed everything there. needless to say, there is a giant stain in the driveway now, very easily visible from long distances. i normally park my old yota in that spot, and i can't have my neighbors thinking my baby leaks a lot of oil. how do i get it off? would brake cleaner work?

There is this stuff called super purple? i think, anyways its in a purple jug, its biodegratable and it cleans like no other. I always buy it from walmart but im sure they carry it in most places. Ive succesfully cleaned almost every kind of stain from my driveway with it.

Dump a bag of cheap Kitty Litter on it - then walk on it / grind the kitty litter with your feet into the concrete. Let sit for 24+ hours then just sweep it up. That stuff works wonders on my concrete carport with any kind of spillage.

Second vote for that purple stuff, it works good. Don't breathe the spray vapors (use a dust mask) and don't get it on your skin, it tears it up. Spray it on the stains, let it sit a few minutes, scrub with a brush, then hose it off. Purple stuff is available at any auto store, or even Home Depot.
