I'm getting ready to epoxy coat the garage floor and am trying to completely prep a few oil spots. Most of the oil is gone, but water still beads slightly. I've tried Simple Green, and I used a power washer on the weekend. I'm looking for something a bit stronger. Any recommendations?

Have you tried muriatic acid to see if that cleans it enough? You have to use that before you paint anyway.

I think that's all I did when I did my cheapy paint job 10 years ago. I may have used some lacquer thinner on the tough spots, but that was about it, IIRC.
