UPDATE: From Kitty Litter to Soap Detergent

A few days ago I moved Maxi from the garage it lives in across the street in order to try and clean up all the transmission fluid that leaked onto the floor.  A man at Home Depot showed me the oil-dry stuff they sell.  I am used to the kitty litter style stuff.  His was sort of like soap flakes, something you'd wash your clothes with.  It seems to work well.  Only thing is, I can't put a layer in my metal drip pans because the engine really stirs up the air as it runs, which means the stuff would blow all over the place!  So I think the kitty litter will stay in the pans, and the "soap" will be used for future cleaning...
