Spill kits: Do you have one? What's in it?

hans j

drove a van where?
After this last weekends trip in Moab, someone had a vanagon get a coolant hose stuck on a rock and yank it off, dumping coolant all over slickrock. They were able to cover it with sand to keep desert animals from licking it, but it seems there are better ways to clean it up.

I've seen some kits with garbage bags, oil change tubs with screw on sealed lids, floor dry, and one with a bottle of enzymes that eat oil and help speed the cleaning.

What would you recommend carrying to help clean up? I already carry garbage bags, tarp, shovel, and some silicone rescue tape to help seal anything. I'm also going to get a small tub of floor dry.

What else?

My thoughts too. You pretty much have it covered and that's more or less how I'm going to build mine. I would suggest a pig mat or oil absorbent barriers. Today on Poison Spider I came across a bunch of broken glass. A stiff bristle broom would be helpful for those accidents as well as spread/floor dry around.
