Used oil is sure the Poor Boy method.😀
Great for those who don’t mind the old oil smell.
An old friend of mine who owned a local sawmill, used to douse his machine shop floor that way. Wood plank floor, of course.
This was 50 or more years ago, and it still smells today, though Ralph is long gone.
I find it a pleasant and nostalgic smell ,though others may not.
But your descendants might like it!
