Default Oil stains plastic decks

Has anyone had any success with cleaning oil stains off of those new plastic
decks. I have tried a number of things, most recently GoJo natural pumice
cleaner to no avail. Its not a Trex deck but a knock off of one. Any info
would be most appreciated.


Try baking soda. Sprinkle it on fairly heavy and then cover it with a
pie pan or a dish. Let it sit overnight. Vacuum or brush up. If
needed, repeat. Due to the nature of plastics (oil derivatives) you
will be lucky if you eliminate the stain completely. But you should be
able to diminish it greatly.
