You have two options:
You can use the SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser above 35 degrees as long as it does not get colder to a freezing level like 32 degrees.
If wintry weather is an issue, your other option is to use SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless oil cleaner degreaser. If the concrete is not wet, and the concrete is natural gray concrete color.
The following is the application process for either option.
1. Spot treats heavy areas with SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser . Allow it to soak for 10 minutes before treating the rest of the surface.
2. Apply our SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser to the entire surface. Watch the following SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser application.
3. Rinse the drive using a pressure washer. The SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser will biodegrade the oil breaking it into parts which are safe to wash into the sewer.
4. This step will remove most of the oil on the surface and some of the oil which has penetrated the concrete. Oil stains are extremely hard to clean from the surface because once you have cleaned the surface, the oil inside the pores of the concrete will resurface and the oil stain reappears.
5. Once you feel you have cleaned as much as you can clean with SealGreen Oil Cleaner Degreaser , allow the concrete to dry completely naturally.
6. Once the concrete is dry, apply SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner to the remaining oil stain in the concrete. Watch the following SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner application The SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner is a non-sensitive cleaner to temperatures. Surface to be clean must be dry and remain dry for at least 2-3 days.
7. The SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner will stick to the remaining oil stain and the enzymes in the SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner will follow the oil into the microscopic pores of the concrete eating all the oil that cannot be removed by washing. The enzymes then die, turn in CO2, and evaporate.
8. The process is slow but SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner is a concrete gray color and will remain in place until all the oil is removed, or it has eaten as much as it can. Depending on the amount of oil in the concrete it may require several treatments of SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner.
9. The SealGreen Gray-Out Waterless Oil Cleaner, over a period of a couple of days, will stick to the concrete until it eats the oil. The Gray-Out should be applied just to cover the stain so that daily traffic over the cleaner will not track or affect its performance.
10. We have many commercial places using this process on drive thru, parking lots, driveways, and sidewalks to maintain the property looking great for their clients.
11. One last thing, to avoid repeating this process frequently we recommend sealing the concrete with SealGreen Concrete Sealer with Salt Defense Technology. This will prevent deep penetration of oil and will make regular cleaning easier and faster. Watch the SealGreen Concrete Sealer with Salt Defense Technology application video
