oil stain on interlock driveway

   hello
   
   Seeing as though I am not an expert on interlocking pavers (only on true asphalt and asphalt sealer), I am going to give you the best advice I can:
   
   I do know that there are products that will take the oil and rust stains off of your driveway--it may be a different product for both.  Unfortunately, I don't know any names since it's not my line of work.  Go to the local hardware store and tell them your dilemma and they should recommend what to use.
   
   You will probably have to put the products on the stains, scrub, and wash off.  I also recommend that you powerwash the driveway to make sure that all of the residue from the product is gone. Also, you should seal the driveway with a clear sealer, and the powerwashing is a crucial step before that is done.
   
   Also, before you seal the driveway, make sure that you get the oil stains removed completely, and see if there is a primer available for those particular areas.  Sealer will not adhere to an oil spot...
   
   I hope that this helps!  A local contractor could definitely be of some help to you.  I would have someone come out and give you a free estimate, with no obligation.  
   
   Sealing your brick pavers is no easy feat.  I think that you will find that when you would add all of the costs together (plus all your time), you will find that it wouldn't be much more (if any) to have a professional do it for you!
   
   hope it helps
