The two friendly chipmunks who live in a woodpile near my garage and drivew ay decided to walk partway across the driveway and then across the front of my garage to get from one side of the property to the other. Unfortunatel y they did this while the driveway sealer (8-year type) was freshly applied .
I have Naptha and gasoline and paint remover as my three chemicals of choic e. Anyone ever tried any of these? I can experiment, but hoping somebody may already know the answer.
Be sure to start by testing which will not remove your paint. I suspect that paint remover might be problematic.
Naptha has less additives; gasoline alone might stain the paint. In either case, I suspect that black/brown from the sealer will persist, especially if the paint is light-coloured and the paint is oil-based.

It's a garage. Why do you care what it looks like?

Depends on the garage. You'd not notice it it mine. My brother though, did restorations on his cars in his 6 car garage. Cleaner than most kitchens.
Are you concerned that his driveway and garage will be better looking than your double-wide living room?
You are basically out of luck. These things seep into the concrete and cannot be completely removed. Just clean up best you can. As others point out it is a garage floor and you can expect staining.
