Questions & Answers

Can I use a preventative measure by sprinkling on the floor? If that's the case, will the sand coagulate if it's exposed to a water leak on a regular basis?

Yes, that is possible; it would not be a problem.

Would this work for soaking up water from a plumbing leak by pouring it behind a bathroom wall (and leaving it there indefinitely)?

When it comes to the plumbing leak, I'm going to say "No." Although this material is designed to absorb oil, I doubt it will absorb water. It's best to fix the leak and open up the wall so that whatever was wet can dry.

Is it possible to use this as cat litter?

It is used for litter in my house.

Is it possible to use it in a cigarette smoker?

I'm not sure, but I'd check with the manufacturer.

OIL- DRI Absorbent for Maintenance

5/5

This will save me money on cat litter, which I've been using to soak up oil on the street left by my roommate, who refuses to have her car's oil leak fixed. I'm aware of how harmful it is to the environment, and I'm aware that her car leaves an oil slick in my neighborhood, which my neighbors do not appreciate. As a result, I desired something specifically tailored to my predicament. This is an excellent method. I was able to remove the lid once I figured out how to do so. It is not intended for a woman to simply peel and discard. It is necessary to have tools. LOL.

Simple to do! Our cats knocked over an oil drain pan, spilling it on the concrete floor, so I ordered this

5/5

I'd previously covered it with sawdust, but when this product arrived, I simply swept up the sawdust, spread this stuff down, and swept it up the next day, and the oil was gone. Excellent work!.

Cleaning up spills in the best way possible

5/5

My 16-year-old daughter should be dubbed Exon because every oil change she performs leaves a pool of oil to clean up. My go- Oil-based cleaners have been used for this clean-up. Dri. With a shop vac, you can clear the area quickly, effectively, and efficiently. I keep it in my bag at all times.

Pricey

5/5

Although the product performs as expected, the cost appears to be excessive. The texture is a bit sand-like. I have no complaints because it appears to absorb oil as it should. In the future, I might look for something like cat litter. Not the kind that sticks to the floor, like clay. That is not the case with this product. Keeping the top clean is simple.

Dawn is much more effective

3/5

As a result of a faulty oil change, I developed a leak. Oil Dri was put down, but it didn't absorb very well. It had been a few days since the spill, so it had plenty of time to settle. br>br>After making a mess on my driveway and street, I washed it all away and used dawn dish soap to clean it up. That was significantly more effective. This was a waste of money in my opinion. In addition, it exaggerated the spill's appearance.

Oil Dri absorbs a lot of liquid

5/5

The Oil Dri absorbent is one of my favorites. The particles are much smaller than those found in other absorbents I've tried. These appear to be more effective at absorbing spills. In addition, unlike other products, I haven't noticed the Oil Dri being tracked around the store. br>br>The Oul Dri absorbent has exceeded my expectations.
