What to do about oil stains on concrete floors?
How to remove oil stains from concrete floors?
Oil stains on concrete floors can be a significant problem. They penetrate deep into the porous surface and are difficult to remove with regular cleaning agents. This can result in permanent stains and an undesirable appearance of your floor. Particularly in garages and workshops, oil stains can be a persistent issue. Therefore, it is important to use a product specifically designed to tackle these stains thoroughly without damaging the floor.
Thorough cleaning with Lithofin OIL-EX
Lithofin OIL-EX is a powerful oil stain remover specifically developed for concrete floors. This ready-to-use, gel-like paste dissolves oily, greasy, and oil-based contaminants and absorbs them effectively. Apply Lithofin OIL-EX thickly to the dry surface with a spatula, about 2 mm thick, and let it dry for 12 hours. Cover it with foil if necessary to prevent it from drying too quickly. Once the paste has turned completely white, wipe away the powder. For deeper stains, the treatment can be repeated one or two times. This product is ideal for use in garages, workshops, and other surfaces prone to oil stains.
