Oil Stains - Clarksville,TN

Dawn (original, blue) dish soap.

Goop found in the automotive section at Walmart. It may take several applications but I've seen it work.

Good Dawn dish detergent!!

Dawn Dishwashing detergent...it doesn't take alot...just a drop or two on the stain and it washes right out. I have used it on everything from Sweatshirts to chiffon for getting out food grease stains. I have used it on tshirts that are infused with the vicks vapor rub, I have used in on make up stains...just about anything that has any petroleum base in it, I have used Dawn. I have even had success with it getting the grease stain out after an item was washed and dried. Even on hand wash items...let it sit for a bit and then wash the item as you normally would. I have never had it do any damage to any fabric. I have also been known to drop a tiny bit of dawn into a wash load of laundry just to help get some of the body oils off of clothes. Good Luck!

Absolutely the BEST thing I have found is called LestOil. It comes in a big bottle (so it lasts a LONG time) and you can use it on any greasy stain directly. I use a baster brush to "paint" it on the oily stain, or a Q-tip. It cannot hurt your other laundry either. I sometimes just add about 1/2 cup to the entire load if there are several things in the load that are spotted, but directly on the stain works best to remove the entire spot. I have saved many clothes with it! It works great on automotive grease too! It does smell like very strong Pine Sol, but I could think of worse things it could smell like! If you can't find it at a big store like WalMart, check a smaller store or another grocery store in the cleaning product section, sometimes it can be hard to find.
