Most 4 post lifts these days have wheels so you can roll them around. You could roll one up to one of those, lift the car up right in front of it and roll it on.

That's true and would work. I had my 2 lifts inline in my old shop and have transferred cars from the back lift to the front one, and vice versa. Rather intimidating doing that 6ft off the floor..

Lynn- spent four hours on a small area of my floor, with the Zep citrus cleaner and then the Zep purple degreaser, and still I’m not having much success getting these oil stains out. Did you have any luck with the microbial cleaner?

Tony - you might consider renting a ride on floor scrubber. All of the commercial cleaning companies that I've seen use this product with good results use the ride on scrubber. Probably have to make several/multiple passes with it too. This is not a miracle solution if the machine oil has been there for decades though, once it gets into the concrete unless you shot blast the surface (which creates other issues and even then it's likely the stain is permanent) it's not coming out.
