Not sure on some that old. But it works well and I think it is worth the try. Mine was on cement so asphalt could be a problem.

Yes, I've used this on tires as well as exterior faded plastic trim, and under the hood to restore faded coloring.

No, this is not that powerful. It is good for maintenance, but it will not remove wax that has been there for seven years. I would see a doctor!

I used the oil in my Crossman 2100 Classic and was able to restore the oiling ring's function. I can't remember how good it was when it was brand new, but I am very satisfied with how it is working now.

I am going to guess yes. It has cleaned coffee stains out of my car carpets on multiple occasions. :)

Well, on the bottle it says "Cleans & Conditions, Softens, Resists Soiling, Buffs, Retards Waterspotting, Protects Against Sun, Safe for Leather & Vinyl". So...with that being said I would think that maybe it would help clean the oil stain but I'm not 100% sure. I might be worth a try.

It will clean it. I had some really nasty stuff in my wife's van it cleaned it all up pretty well.

This product removed cooking oil stains from my granite and those stains were over a year old. Use it exactly as directed and I think you will be pleased.

Yes it will clean old stains well but you must pretreat the stain first let it soak for about 30 minutes and clean as usual if that doesn't work retreat until you nolonger see the stain it may take several treatments to clean it up depending on how long the stain has been their. Good luck on your success in cleaning this.P.S. I would be lost if not for my scruber it was the best buy I made great also on ceramic tile flooring cleans grout to a new finish .

will clean engine, but it thins oil and could remove scale from valve covers that could cause problems. all depends on how clean your engine is inside.

The product can says "oil stain remover." I think StoneTech makes another product for non-oil stains.

I cleaned my jacket first, but I don't think it's a cleaner in the sense. Light soil will probably come off with the oil, but if it's heavy, you probably should use a cleaner first. My jacket is thirty years old and this oil did an unbelievable job restoring it. I would recommend this to anyone!!

Absolutely. Prior to retirement, it was a staple at my parents' shop. For concrete floors, we poured full strength then used a push broom to loosen and lift the oil. For very tough stains (years old), the process was the same but Oil Eater was allowed to work overnight.

Yes. But do not do it. The microbes will remove oil from the clothes very well but they will attack the rubber hoses and neoprene gaskets in the washer as well. The continued wash/rinse cycles will remove most of the remaining Oil Eater after a few more loads but there will be microscopic sized microbes that are embedded in porous materials that will continue to eat all Petrochemical based materials. I suggest you use a laundry sink. The drain is PVC or ABS or Stainless which makes Oil Eater safer for hand washing. Keep in mind that the time frame for Oil Eater to remove oil is long, on the order of weeks. I.E. this is not a heavy duty detergent. It is a long-term alternative to detergents and cleaners that you should use when other options have failed. Please take all my advise with a grain of salt. I used it most recently to lift an oil stain from my snow blower from our driveway here in Colorado in Winter. I was surprised that it worked when most of the days were so cold (-12F) and continued to work on days when the drive way warmed up above 40F or so. It is good stuff but it takes time. Lifting the oil took 2-3 weeks. 90% in the first week. 90% in the second and there is a residual amount that is still visible that will wait till late spring when it warms up and stays dry for long enough for the microbes to eat the oil in the surface of the porous concrete.

I think so. I have used it in a number of places on my car and my motorcycle and have not seen any evidence of any crazing or dulling of surfaces. If I recall correctly, Consumer Reports said this is the only cleaner you need for dirty greasy areas. It is a "go to" product that replaces the need for for a half dozen special cleaners.
