I use it to start trash fires. Yes, I'm very careful...



>Old motor oil? Off to any place you buy oil.

I put it in my oil can and re-use it for lube for bike chains, Chain 
saw chains, etc.



>Old brake fluid? Mix it in with the oil (same with penetrating oils

I very rarely have this but, I mix with Dawn dish soap to emulsify 
and down the toilet.  Sometimes if I have old kitty-litter, I mix 
with the kitty-litter and just throw away.

Down the toilet.
