Some ways to get automotive oil stains off of concrete are by spreading kitty litter (or peat moss) over it, rubbing the kitty litter in with your foot, and sweeping it up or soaking the stain in simple green and then rinsing. There are also products specifically for removing oil stains if these methods do not work.
Start by scraping off everything you can with a spatula or similar tool. The stain and residue on the concrete may be permanent, but you could try concrete cleaners designed to get oil stains out.
We would need to know what caused the stain and what kind of surface it's on. The procedure to clean an oil stain off of concrete is going to be much different than cleaning a red wine stain off of furniture.
I've used it in a pinch...worked like a charm. Didn't stain the concrete and the form came off easily. I used Trader Joe's olive oil spray.
No, it is intended for wood and soaks in too much to look good on concrete. HD sells a good variety of concrete stain.
In my experience, no. Not on existing stains. But it can absorb oil that spills before it soaks into the concrete, possibly preventing a stain from happening.
The oil will gradually float to the top and you may be able to draw it off carefully.
maybe try cleaning it or not spill the oil spill clean with lighter fluid

No, oil needs to penetrate the surface and the latex stain will inhibit that penetration.
Not really. Stain needs to absorb in to a wooden surface. If the surface is covered with anything it will reject the oil that carries that stain colour. It will dry against the surface but because its not fully adhered it will come off
All of it. Otherwise the latex stain will seal the surface of the wood and the oil will not be able to penetrate into the wood. Sanding won't remove all of the residue. You'll want to use a paint stripper/stain remover too.
You get it and then get it off
