Thanks.

There is a spray that is chemically based, but it works wonders. If you are looking for something more eco friendly you could try dawn.

You can dick around and pour Kitty litter on it which wont work to good. If/When I spill oil I spray the spot with a can of engine degreaser and hose it off, comes right out.

Pressure washer

A decent quality brand laundry detergent will do it, along with a little scrubbing with a bristle broom. Dawn will help if you mix it in. Add a power washer and it will be a 10 minute job max.

Tried that this weekend with power steering fluid. I have some really clean areas around those power steering spots

Brake cleaner is chemical based but works great.

Mechanics I know use gas to loosen the oil up then a detergent to pick it all up

Detergent, scrub, pressure wash
If you decide to open up to using chemicals, use boric acid (should find it at most hardware stores)

It's ruined. Might as well pour oil on the rest and tell everyone it's custom
