Best answer
Hubby's a self taught mechanic & said - Sand to absorb majority of it & then brush away. Do it twice and then use a mix of fairy &washing powder. rub into it. Generally fairy & washing powder is enough. It won't remove it fully only a mechanics powerful cleaner will do that

Works treats weirdly enough. Used on oil in my drive and it diluted it to absolute hell and washed away easier

I personally would use a solvent such as Thinners, paint stripper mixed and put on the whole spill liberally. leave for about 30 minutes then use a high pressure spray! tah-dah! that should work!
