Re: Is Dawn Soap really so good that it cleans about

I don't know what kind of concrete you guys have on your driveways, but if I spill dirty engine oil (for instance) I put the oil absorbing stuff on it and then sweep it up after it soaks awhile. If there is still some oil there, I dump a little more absorbing stuff on and grind it to powder with my shoe and leave it for a bit. It always takes up the oil.

I've done the brick or 2x4 thing and it is pretty successful but its a lot of work down on your knees. Also found the Kitty Litter with clay worked the best...don't know if they still make it with clay since I don't have a cat.

Re: Is Dawn Soap really so good that it cleans about

I only use Dawn. My wife bought some of that cheap perfumed up garbage. It was awful. It didn't work. I threw it out and got some Dawn.
I cook a lot and don't want to mess around with cheap junk. Kind of like tools. Get the good stuff and you won't regret it.

Re: Is Dawn Soap really so good that it cleans about

I think my ex wife used Dawn on my bank account. It was really well cleaned out.
It might have been Tide. I'm not sure.

Re: Is Dawn Soap really so good that it cleans about

I used Dawn to make my wife jealous. Well it worked but didn't go the way I expected. Turns out my wife got jealous of Dawn being with me, they made up, and took off for Lezzyland. Now I have to wash the dishes!
