Wait, so they sprayed it on your car AFTER you bought it? Why?

Y'know for how popular simple green is, does it actually work at all? We had a polka dotted driveway and tried using simple green and it didn't do jack crap for getting rid of all the coolant, oil, and other auto liquid stains in my driveway, and that was after letting it soak in nice and good and scrubbing it. Maybe like an industrial degreaser would work...
