Hi! I have a project where I have to design a small concrete containment pit for hydraulic oil. In case of a spill (we're talking about a small volume of oil, probably in the 10-20 gals range), the owner wanted a second layer of protection by putting a liner below and around the concrete pit.

Anyone here knows what type of liner is appropriate for hydraulic oil? thanks!
