Over the years, 18, I've worked in my garage fixing cars and the small spills and leaks have accumulated and it's time to make it look better again. Any ideas?

    You have quite a history of fixing cars!

    Hope this technique works for you.

    The main thing I would personally do after watching this video is wear long sleeves when working with these products. Always safety first.
