Not in garage but real close

What is the best way to go about cleaning oil stains from my driveway? I've got some spots from leaking cars being parked and from my kid changing his oil in the driveway that I want to get cleaned up. What is a good degreaser or detergent to use to lift the oil. I do have a 3000psi cold water pressure washer but that alone doesn't get it done.

the purple stuff from sams club works great use a spray bottle at full strength spray let sit for awhile then rinse off. Worked for a 30year old service station when i worked there on that floor.

DriveUp or Greased Lightening.

Squirt direct on spots. Scrub in with broom. Leave overnight. Hose off in the morning. Repeat after drying if necessary.

Both seem to work on old oil stains also.

I use powder Tide.
Put it about 1/8 thick and then dampen it enough to be oatmeal thick.
Put a wet towel over it and keep the towel wet.
Let it sit at least over night.
24 hours is better.

SuperClean works good for me.

Spray on, scrub with a stiff broom, power spray off.

I use orange citric de-greaser from Home Depot. Same procedure as the old wizard mentioned. Home depot has several driveway de-greasers and cleaners. The one I use isn't their strongest formula but still does the job.
