Spills happen in a second, but the messes they create can mean hours of cleanup. Fortunately, having the right products on hand can speed up the process. At Ace Hardware, you'll find an assortment of oil-absorbent products and sweeping compound solutions from brands like Oil-Dri and Super Clean, so you can stock up on time-saving solutions for dealing with spills in your shop or garage.
Explore Your Oil Absorber Options
When you accidentally knock over an oil drain pan, drip motor oil on the floor or have enough mess that involves oily substances, cleanup can be difficult. Because oils repel water and may resist the effects of conventional cleaners, you often need more than your usual cleaning supplies. On these occasions, an oil absorber or floor absorber comes in handy. These absorbent products attract oils and lock them away. There are two main oil absorbent options to consider: pads and powders.
Oil Absorbent Pads
An oil absorbent pad is usually made from natural fibers or polypropylene and works by drawing in oils and locking them away. You can use them like cleaning cloths after a spill or place them beneath your working area and under snow blowers, lawn mowers and other equipment to catch leaks.
Oil Absorbent Powder
An oil-absorbent powder gets sprinkled on after a spill. Within 30 minutes to an hour, the powder works to slowly draw in oils, transforming them into a rubbery substance. Once the process is complete, you can scrape or sweep up the mess and then use a buffer or polisher as desired to fully restore the appearance of your floor.
Sweeping Compound to Simplify Cleaning
Sawdust from woodworking and debris from weather damage, demolition work and other causes can be challenging to clean up with just a broom. However, you can cut down on the time involved by applying a sweeping compound. These products trap dust and debris and prevent them from entering the air while you sweep.
Gritted sweeping compound includes abrasives that help loosen stubborn grime while you sweep. They can be a great pick for messy jobs in workshops and garages. When working in an area with finished floors, a gritless, non-abrasive product is generally the type of sweeping compound that experts recommend.
