Can Baking Soda Clean Concrete Driveways - Find Out Here 

Dude you don't know how many of us you just save a ton of time. Can't wait for your next Don't DIY This.

I thought of using baking soda and vinegar for front door landing. And decided to look it up in RU-vid Thanks

YOU SAVED ME FROM WASTING MY TIME. Thank you so much!!!! I don't have any spare time, so 4 minutes to watch this is a lifesaver!!

"Shoulda just stayed in bed" 🤣🤣 me every time I try to diy

Thanks mate, you just saved me some time seeing if baking soda would work. Cheers from Australia.

Learning what DOESN’T Work, Is as valuable as learning what DOES work... Thank you!

thanks for demonstrating the old baking soda and vinegar cleaner trick, it saved me the time to even try. i had the same problem too. just feel sorry for the effort you've put into it.

My brother is a dentist did his PHD on creating new way for jaws treatment, and ended up that, new technique failed after three years of applying it and observe the results. The professors asked him, why did you try this method and presented to us. He said, because many of dentists was thinking about it, and to save some body's time. appreciate your experiment.

Thanks for taking the time to show those of us were wondering....appreciate it...

THANK YOU for your efforts and for sharing! I was about to do this tomorrow!!! So, again, THANK YOU!!

I appreciate it. I just watched a video where someone swore this worked, so thank you!

"Looks like I should've just stayed in bed!" 🤣🤣🤣

For a DIY job, washing detergent is great. You have to leave it on the driveway surface for a week. You have to be patient, wet the area regularly so the dirt absorbs into the detergent. Works well, especially if you spill engine oil.

I actually was considering this, so thanks!

baking soda, a squirt of lavendar dish soap and a gallon or so of warm water make a great shampoo for carpeted floor mats.

actually I put 8 microbes in the flubber dust so when people dont care and pollute away its still eats the oil, the best wy still is to use the sunlight to break the oil down, its avaible on line in the USA and we are working on the stores this coming year. cheers Kevin

I think a pressure washer works a lot better. Got mine from Ollies for $80, did a great job just using water. Baking soda and white vinegar does clean carpet stains pretty well tho.

Thanks for the video. Its always very appreciated !

yep you just saved me a lot of time i was about to do exactly what you tried..didnt think it would get this mold out of my concrete deck by the bay...guess it power washing time.

Thanks man, still fun to watch. Looks darker afterwards...copy the "should've stayed in bed" ..it happens, I think you're right though there's got to be some sort of chemical reaction that's possible based on what the concrete is mixed with.

I love the final sentences!! 😂😂😂

Loved the video and yes you saved me going thru the same with the same results, going to try thr turpentine way to remove th stain with wire brush... Thanks again buddy, hope you got over the cold...be well

I was advised to do this at work as non toxic from workers coming in from the mill. The only way I found this worked was to apply muscel and it worked but letting baking soda do the work I found it needed alot help from me rubbing area. Thank goodness only few spots. Did not use vinigar. Again it was only spots from boots. I am looking at for a way on a project to clean and would not be spots, it will be interesting as i can see me brushing and brushing.

Just loved your last statement🤣🤣🤣

The funniest part is that after all that work it actually looks more Stained compared to the left side LOL

New construction. Our basement flooded, leaving thick layer of red clay dried on the concrete floor for over 1 year. My father removed a layer using a hand scraper. I shop-vac'd behind him. My brother and I then used scrub brushes, soap + water, sponges, removing a good deal of clay, but much of it still remained... Finally, after researching some DIY tips, I tested three similar areas of the clay, using: (1.White vinegar (2.Vinegar + Baking soda (3.Hydrogen peroxide The plain, white vinegar was the clear winner; removing all the remainder of the clay. I allowed the vinegar to sit for 15 minutes before using scrub brush + sponge to clean. Initially, my father suggested using a pressure washer, (which we did try)... but we were only able to remove about a foot (a literal 12-inch ruler size) of clay before having to take 30sec-1min of shop-vacing the area from water overflow..... Plus, using a shop-vac inside this space seemed reckless imo. All this said, I'm always looking for a natural/organic method to get the job done before using chemicals... I see people recommending muriatic acid or (this other product with Tetrafluoroborate in the ingredient list)... Fine if you need to get the job done fast..... but otherwise, I'd rather not be breathing bleach/etc. or dumping some daft thing into the environment; some basic ass cleaning vinegar did the trick.

Thanks mate, saved a lot of time . Cheers

Good for letting us this video so we won't have to try it. Thanks

I was wondering if that would have worked .Thanks for the Video

Thanks for sharing I’m trying to remove an oil spot on our driveway and I was thinking of doing this same thing but now I know it doesn’t work.

I'm giving you a thumbs up and a like, just for trying. Appreciate your effort brother.

Well, I loved the video. And thank you for sharing this with us. I had also wondered about doing that. You get an A for effort! Thanks again. :-) Thumbs UP!

Hahahaha you made my day by laughing so hard. Thanks!

Worth watching for the big reveal

Thanks for this

Brilliant "I should of stayed in bed" , we all have them days :)

Thank you for saving me time and money!

Use baking soda and vinegar only. Let sit for 10 mins then brush with broom. Only use water to rinse to wash off baking soda and vinegar. Caution. Vinegar will kill the grass/weeds but it should clean concrete. Thanks.

Vinegar is good, too. Not everyone can afford a pressure washer. We have both.

Thank you for saving time.

Hey, Thanks! At least you saved me the time and trouble. I've heard a mixture of bleach and dish soap works. I'm going for that next!

Thank you... Your video answered my question....

Saw this video after the fact. That "shoulda just stayed in bed" hit real hard.

I appreciate this. I’m not sure if allowing the baking soda mixture to dry had any detrimental effect or not. I wonder if a Borax powder mix would do anything.

I can't wait till I retire just do whatever the hell I want at anytime of the day any day of the week

You've done a man's job, Sir.

Thanks, at least you tried.

Mold Armor® E-Z House Wash 64 fl. oz. Jug at Walmart .....try this stuff pour on and wait 15 minutes and hose off.....it works

"I'm not gonna scrub it".. proceeds to scrub it.

Liquid chlorine and water works a treat and no scrubbing necessary

Great video

You made my day ✅

Good on ya mate!

What about on pavement? What’s the best removal material or hack for cleaning oils off paved surfaces?

Lmfao !!!!! Greatest freaking fail ever !! I loved this video !! I actually think you made it worse !! Hahahaha!!

Love the fact that you let us see the results... 😂

After a night of heavy drinking I urinated on the cement driveway and the next day my wife ask me if I had been cleaning the driveway. I told her no, I did not know what happened.Then I figured it out.Bud Light is good for something.

Last comment... should have stayed it bed... was the cherry on top !! :)

I mean let's give him kiddos for using a somewhat natural product versus all these other people on RU-vid pollutiong our soil with harsh chemicals. Thank you sir!

Lmfao...we've all been there.. so i can totally relate. Thanks for the chuckle

Good video none the less.

Thanks

We should have as well as we got equal results although we stopped at the baking soda!

Brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌👌👌

Live the presentation....I guess I won’t try it. Thanks

vineger will remove musty mildew smell from concrete .. used it in my basement for floor after removing vinyl flooring ..the only thing that worked! 4$

Worth watching - Your response made me laugh... Sorry it didn't work

I'm going to test a patch except I'm going to throw down vinegar instead of water.

Would you recomend the baking soda for concrete cleaning or with vinegar? What combination offer good result? That is the main and important as per your exp.

I'm obsessed with baking soda when I'm heavily medicated as well. Did you discover a new way to edge your driveway?

1:07 someone drives by and be like um your missing the grass dud.

I might try tinting the concrete.🤔

😂Best ending EVER

Yes! I came here because I thought about using BAKING SODA.... So now I'll stick to BAKING .....

I've thought about painting mine black....lol...make it look more like asphalt .......or at least it would be all one color...lol...or just paint it grey with extra paint over the black oil leaks! ;-)

Wondering if using dishwashing liquid is the missing ingredient. Kind of like washing oily dishes

Just gotta pressure wash it. If you’re in California hit me up I own a pressure washing company!

Hey what if I pour some vinegar on it.. 😂

Stayed in bed...me and projects...my life story.

You did save me from trying this method. Thank you!

best comedy ever "I was going to throw some weedkiller on it too" HILARIOUS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I would use baking soda vinegar dawn then brush it.

vingar 50%and water 50% and 2% soda mix and supray kill meldo fence

You did save us from doing it, thanks!

Lucky you didn't kill your lawn. Lol.. m I'm testing out white wine vinager in my drain field.

Water first, big 5gallon bucket baking soda, then pour Coke on it and scrub.

Time saver. I'll stay in bed instead.Thanks.

Probably should of used Arm And Hammer💪 I like the video and when the ol’vinegar came out to play, I thought come-on! You could try peroxiding it but then it might look like blinding white Hollywood teeth😁

More baking soda and if u do scrub it does work everyone trie to get out of a lil elbow grease get in and get it done

mix it with vinager

I tried this too! Baking soda is useless on concrete stains.

ur a cool dude bruh 💛

Rent a pressure washer and a surface attachment from Home Depot.

Hahaha....Well that's 4:12 I can't get back. :)

You can wet the concrete first then pour chlorine Let it sit for 10 minutes the pressure wash or use outdoor concrete cleaner and pressure wash 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks. I was going to do this and now I won't!

Awesome video bud lol.

Interesting but a Pressure washer would take a fine layer off of the concrete driveway plus it's faster. Rather then the salad dressing approach. Thanks

Will this method also work with dog poop "stains??"

Funny stuff bro lol at least you can make fails humourous, I sure as hell cant LOL Im not sure if you know that vinegar (acetic acid) is a neutralizer to baking soda thats why it fizzes... both clash, so what was abosrbed came out . It would have improved had you left the baking soda to absorb for a few hours then pressure washed
