Spirits, spray/pour on, agitate with a stiff brush, leave for 5-10 mins then come back and rinse of with more spirits and the stiff brush.

No need to get a specifically branded product.

Spirits or similair will take it off and probably cost half as much.

Sawdust's no good for cleaning, just adsorbing excess. I've found that a hose ends up just pushing it about as well.
