I read somewhere that you can use WD40 to get melted chap stick out of clothes, but now I have WD40 stains on my work clothes. Any idea how to get the WD40 out now? Help!
Dish soap is made to get grease off of your dishes and does a great job on any oily stain on clothes.

My husband is a truck driver and he gets everything on his clothes from axle grease to diesel fuel to tar. I swear by "Orange GOOP" hand cleaner and "Greased Lightening" all purpose cleaner & degreaser. You can find both at WalMart or most home improvement stores.
First I squirt the area with Greased Lightening thoroughly, then rub in some of the hand cleaner on the same spot. Rub well into the fabric either with your knuckles or with a small scrub brush. Then roll up the clothing and let set for an hour or so. Then unroll and wash as usual.
This sounds like a big chore and believe me, sometimes it is, But it's better than having to buy new work clothes every week!
Good luck...hope this works for you. Pat T.

Shout is the best stain remover I've used! It gets out every stain I encounter!
