The oil dry crap should pull it up from the pavement, or the degraser and brush should do it...

Yeah something with high strength. hard brush, scrub it off the pavement, let it sit for a lil bit... read the label though, make sure it wont discolor the pavement...

A pressure washer will take it right off. I'm pretty sure you can rent them, if you don't have one available to you.

I always use simple green. Its not so harsh but it gets the stains out. Plus you can use it on all things.
Peace

usually as soon as i spill something, or atleast the same day. I just spray simple green on it, full strength, and get a brush. Just brush it in really well and spray it down with some water. If its fresh itll get it all out.
