  1. Dawn dishwashing liquid has always worked for me.


  2. Step1: Apply an absorbent such as talcum powder or cornstarch to the affected area, then brush away. If the stain is heavy or old, proceed to

    Step 2; if fresh, skip to Step 3.

    Step2Place stain facedown on paper towels. Blot back of stain with a dry-cleaning solvent. Replace paper towels as they soak up the stain.

    Step3Spray with laundry pretreatment.

    Step4Wash in the hottest water that's safe for the garment.

    Step5Air dry.


  3. Apply some Dawn dish liquid directly to the stain. Wash the area by hand until the stain is gone...

  4. Use Palmolive first, let it soak then run through washer...DO NOT PUT IN THE DRYER until you KNOW it is out.  If it did not come out use Goof Off, you can buy it at Walmart, this stuff is awesome, use only as a last result as it does have strong fumes.  :-)

  5. Try Greased Lightening, just spray, scrub, soak wash in warm water. DO NOT dry in regular dryer. Just hang dry so you can see if you need to re-treat the spot.  

  6. Dishwashing liquid or shampoo right on the stain then wash as usual. You could scrub it a little with a toothbrush after you have applied the shampoo or dishwasher soap.
