Answer 3

Spray each oily area with Preen (the heavy duty one) or White king for colours.  Leave for approx 15 minutes and machine wash in warm water in a good washing powder like radiant or drive.

I never have any problems removing oil and even if you have washed the item already and discover the oily mark the above still works.
