Absorbing Driveway Stains

Kitty litter can absorb those ugly oily spots on the garage floor or driveway. Just sprinkle some kitty litter on the spots, leave to sit for a few hours, come back, and sweep away the stains.

Absorbent and abrasive cat litter can help get an oil spot off the driveway

Don't be surprised, however, when using kitty litter, to find that some outside cat has made a deposit while you were gone. You may find yourself cleaning up more than you had intended!

And for those REALLY stubborn oil stains, after the kitty litter, pour a 2 liter cola over the stain (these come for like 50 cents for the store brand) and leave it for a few hours, then hose off. The acid in the cola eats right through the oil. But be sure to use cola and not one of the other types of soda.
