Alright apparently my neighborhood association is all communist. So I need to know what you guys use that works for cleaning rover leaks off of a asphalt driveway. I tried using simple green tonight and it improved drastically but, I'm hoping you guys know something better of course:banghead:

Thanks in advance.

yeah...I didn't even notice my wifes magazine until I went back and looked at the picture. When I first saw the cleavage comment I thought "oh shit what pic did I post". but seriously I used that stuff to get tar off my truck and it worked great and we have used it to clean all sorts of stuff off vehicles and in the house and it has never failed. I don't have an asphalt driveway so I don't know about that.

I'm not sure about asphalt, but for concrete driveways I use carb cleaner and a rag to lift the deep down stuff. Then zep's driveway cleaner to get the whole area.

Speedi-Dry maybe? Its like, 6 bucks for a huge bag at Advance Auto.

When I got my garage (rental garage in an apt complex) the entire floor was covered with oil. Literally. I sprinkled that stuff all over it, let it sit for a few days and it was good to go. Got most of the spots out.

You will want to be careful using any solvents on asphalt. Remember asphalt is very heavy oil. If the cleaner will cut the grease it will probably damage the drive way. I like the rock idea from Leslie; less run off when it rains also. Drillbit has the the best idea, however. I couldn't live somewhere where somebody else can mandate how my home looks. If I want to have the next white trash expo in my front yard, so be it.

Glad I'm not the only one with retards who bitch about my driveway. I was tempted to find out who it was and go dump my oil from the last oil change on their driveway, then sit and LMAO when they saw they had stains.
