Degrease Driveway With Cola, Cat Litter

If your concrete driveway, carport or garage floor looks like an Indy 500 pit stop, we have a cleaning recipe for you.

First, soak up the grease with cat litter. Cover the area with a generous amount and grind it in with the soles of your shoes. Sweep it up and dispose of the soiled material.

Next, saturate the area with a cola beverage, working it into the concrete with a stiff bristle broom but not allowing it to dry. Once the cola has stopped fizzing, flush the area with clean fresh water.

Whiten the gray stain that remains with a solution of 1 cup of powdered laundry detergent and 1 cup of liquid chlorine bleach in 1 gallon of very hot water. Finish the job with a final rinse.
