Oil stains in bed!

So last weekend I was going to visit my parents, I had changed my oil the day before and forgot about leaving the drain pan in the bed of the truck. I had everything tightened down and all the caps on and some how on the way down the little air valve with the snap on cap popped open......bad enough the oil pan got loose and slid around the truck and got oil EVERYWHERE! So now in my black Line-x I have oil stains....I took a powerwasher to it, but it did nothing, I didnt try scrubbing with a stiff brissle brush and soap, anybody know how I can get this stuff out of my bed?

soak it with simple green and hose it out, that should take care of it. i had the same thing happen when i hauled a transmission in my ranger. damn thing leaked all over my line-x. simple green fixed it.

This makes transporting the oil to get recycled so much easier and keeps things cleaner.

That does look much better and easier to handle than taking my 12q pan down to the garage at the end of town. I think i'll pick one up next time i'm i buy oil.
