FURNITURE TIPS - Removing
oil from a wood surface.
The only way to pull grease and oil out of wood is with a
poultice. Go to your swimming pool place and get a bag of
diatomite or commonly known as diatomaceous earth. Grab a
couple of gallons of acetone also from hardware or paint store.
Mix the two together to form a paste you can spread over the
top. You will need about a 1/2" layer of it. As the acetone
dries, the oil gets pulled into the DE .Once it is dry, scrape
it off into the trash and repeat if necessary. Most likely
it will take at least three applications. You might try putting
a heat source directly under the slab at the same time which
will drive more oil to the surface.
You will need to do it in outdoors because of the intensely
flammable and highly smelly fumes.
