Automotive Oil Stains
If you have automotive grease stains on 
your driveway, the best way to remove 
them is to use a commercial concrete 
degreaser. These products are usually 
sprayed or poured onto the stain, left to sit 
for a few minutes, and then scrubbed 
gently.
Other Grease Stains
Sometimes, you might have grease stains 
from food or cooking oil on your 
driveway. In this case, a diluted mixture 
of either dish soap and water or laundry 
detergent will get the job done. Apply 
directly to the stain, leave to sit for a few 
minutes, scrub and then rinse.

Rust Stains
Rust stains can discolor concrete 
driveways, but the good news is they can 
usually be removed with products you have 
in your kitchen. Either lemon juice or 
vinegar will usually help to lift and lighten a 
rust stain. Scrub the area and rinse with 
water after application and repeat as 
necessary until the stain is faded enough.
Dirt and Vegetation
Another common problem with concrete 
driveways is an accumulation of dirt and 
vegetation, including moss and algae. 
The best way to deal with these kinds of 
stains is to scrape off all the debris 
manually, and then use a power washer 
to blast the remaining dirt and 
discoloration from your driveway. Source :www.concretelethbridge.com
Consider Sealing Concrete Driveways
Once you’ve removed the stains from your 
concrete driveway, it’s a good idea to 
consider sealing them. This is a specially 
designed, very hard wearing chemical that 
is applied to the surface of the concrete to 
create a tough and mostly impervious 
layer.
When Stains on Concrete Driveways Just Won’t Budge
Unfortunately, while most stains on 
concrete driveways can be removed with 
the right product and a little elbow 
grease, that’s not always the case. 
Likewise, if your concrete driveway has 
other problems like cracks or damage, 
cleaning it might not be enough to 
completely transform it. Source :www.concretelethbridge.com
