smells like oil..I had a bunch of things like power steering fluids, etc and also food items like catsup and other plastic things. I washed it all in hot soapy water and the next day went to get it and it all smelled like stinking oil.

I( would like to savage some of my stuff as I already lost several bags of Christams items when they cut off the doors and through broken windows when they towed it..the tow guy said it was all down thr road..I haven't gotten all my items..most is at my sons..he says all the tote boxes are broken and everything is a mess and I am not sure what all I had in there but it was a lot and I want to save what I can..

How can I get this oil off everything or is it impossible?

It was motor oil in bottles in my car..the trunk and back seat is all crumpled and the car hit on both sides so I guess the squeezing of the trunk caused the oil to explode and the totes to break apart.no truck was involved

New oil doesnt smell as bad as used oil, but try GOJO hand cleaner, it has a nice orange smell and it comes in gallons at any parts store and it desolves oil so it can be rinsed off with water.

The smelly oil odors can be removed by placing an ozone air purifier in the closed space for several days. I sell and rent the machines for odor removal. It will plug into the cigarette lighter. Check with an equipment rental agency.

It appears like they're doing the actual looking element. If the wear became basically splendor to the physique of the motor vehicle the fee isn't decreased. If the wear became to the physique or engine you're able to get an estimate of the quantity of the shrink in fee, which will additionally count on the age of the motor vehicle, and ask for extra fee.

Ajax cleanser dumped on spilled oil will absorb the oil and remove the stain from everything, including concrete surfaces. I would try this on everything first, works wonders for me.

Washing things is Dawn is suppose to get off grease.

& for the smell, i'd recommend febreeze. it comes in a multitude of scents. or even put some baking soda around, it absorbs ordors.

I think this is pretty much of an impossible task.
