Oily Water Turned Soil Gray!!!
I'd top soil it and let nature do her thing. She'll break down the chemicals
if given time. Remember oil is organic and comes from rotted trees. Soil is good at breaking most chemicals down into something else, if given some time. On the blacktop, I'd take some soil and put it on there too, sweep it around, let it dry, wet it down and sweep it around a bit. I usually use dry soil to pick up fresh oil spills on my asphalt. Leave it on there for awhile if you can and move it around once in awhile. -- Bob Noble http://www.sonic.net/bnoble "NapalmHeart" wrote in message computertechnology... "Jim" wrote in message ... Can one of you with experience in this type of situation help the OP?

There was a HUGE puddle of oil all over the driveway. I used kitty litter to try to soak it all up. and then tried to wash it away with some "Dawn Dish Soap". Anyway, now everytime it rains, the driveway gets puddles of that "rainbow colored" oily water. When I try to wash it with the "Dawn Dish Soap", the white foamy bubbles from the Dish Soap turn all Black. So the bubbles all turn this foamy Black color, and the water underneath is all rainbow colored. |
