Try to scrape/scoop up as much as you possibly can. If you add water
to it, you will be in there *forever*, trying to get it all up!
Once you've got the majority of it up, use rubbing alcohol on towels
or paper towels to get up the remainder.
I know retail stores use a granular substance that quickly absorbs
spills, but I am not sure what it is called. A store like Home Depot
or Menards may have a similar product.

Good luck!
