I was carrying a 5L container of (new) engine oil in the boot of my car. The lid was loose and around 500ml or less leaked out and into the carpet in my boot.
Has anyone successfully removed an oil spill like that? I've read that you can use absorbent material like sand or baking powder to soak it up and then remove it and hit it with solvents and then wash it, I really don't want to run the risk and make it worse so any advice would be appreciated.
