Answer 3

You will need an enzyme detergent like gain. Put the detergent on the spots and rub together. let it soak overnight. Rinse and reapply if necessary and then launder as usual.

Answer 4

well you can try what i use, Dawn dish liquid, right out of the bottle, i got a 16 year old son that gets tomatoes and chocolate and you name it he wipes it on his white shorts. so i keep an extra bottle of dawn, have done that for years now, it will take out just about anything. dont waste your money on stain removers just keep dawn in the house all the time, it works great for me.

and good luck with that, oh yeah and by the way the only thing i found it wont remove is ink.

Answer 5

pour more oil onto it

Answer 6

You can use this spray stuff that my mom uses it's called SHOUT. I dont know.... this just might work! good luck. :)

Answer 7

I would try to handwash it with hot water using Dawn dishsoap, it's a degreaser.

Answer 8

Pretreat the stain first with Shout, Oxi-Clean, or Spray-n-Wash with Resolve, wait about 5-10 minutes, and launder

with your favorite laundry detergent.

Answer 9

~~Put talcum powder (any type) on the stain and rub in to the material with your finger until it's thoroughly coated. Let it sit and hour or so, then launder. Shoud be gone, sometimes you don't have to wash again, just brush off the powder and it will be gone!~~

Answer 11

Use any typical motor oil.

Because of the chemical makeup of food oils and motor oil, they will congeal and form a paste-like substance which can be scraped off quite easily without leaving any sort of mess, it works all the time. We use this method in the restaurant I work at

Answer 12

Pretreat with Dawn dish detergent... wash in HOT water seriously

Answer 13

My boyfriend is a mechanic, and we use "soil love".  It's in a blue little bottle on detergent aisle.  Only $2 a bottle.  He puts it in a spray bottle and it works great.  We find it at our local Safeway....good luck!

Answer 16

Goop waterless hand cleaner ( available in the automotive section ) or M30 waterless hand cleaner.  You can find it in the laundry section at Dollar General.  Apply a blob to the stain, let it set for 20 minutes and launder as usual.

Only once has this failed to get out an oil stain for me.  When that happened I re-washed the stain with Fels Naptha laundry soap and it disappeared. I find Fels Naptha at ACE Hardware store.

Whatever you do, do NOT put the item in the dryer until you know the stain is gone.  Heat will set the stain in the fabric.
