Product to remove oil stains from concrete for painting?

Damn! Never thought about that. Unfortunately, the shop is 26' X 100'.
Lotsa tiles man! And too cheap to hire the job out. Fortunately,
the shop can be sub-divided, so I could tile approx. 26' X 36' and it
wouldn't be such a damn stressful weekend project!

I used lacquer thinner and it works great. Dries fast. You might consider
doing a tile floor. I did it in my garage and it works great. More
resistance to scratching, eay to clean, and won't peel up like a lot of the
painted hangars here at the airpark. Get the tile that they use in grocery
stores. I am talking about the stuff that is similar to what used to be
called VAT, or vinyl asbestos tile. You can get it in 16x16 tiles, and it's
easy to lay down. If you have the money, hire it done.

I'm looking to find some product that can remove oil stains from
concrete so that paint will stick. My shop used to be used by a car
mechanic and now that I build airplanes in it, I'd like to paint the
floor a very light gray or off-white. I don't think that just using
"Gunk" will remove it enough to get the paint to stick. Maybe some sort
of epoxy-like sealer first? Any ideas?
