Removing Cooking Oil From Clothing

RE: Removing Cooking Oil From Clothing Post By (Guest Post) (06/28/2008) I need to get a combination of fake tan and massage oil out of a white cotton shirt, long story but I am not real happy about it. I am soaking it in washing powder and hot water as we speak but it was left to dry overnight. Will dry cleaning it help?

I was amazed. It worked even when the stain appeared to be set-in. Thanks to the person that posted the suggestion!

I know this question was a while back, but i'm new and have an answer. For oil stains, even old ones, pile baby powder in a mound over the stain. Let it sit over night, shake out and then wash as usual. It removes a majority of our oil stains!

You may have to use it more than once, but it's cheap and works great. And can often be used even after stains have been heat-set to save clothing.

It did a good job on a set in chocolate stain that had been washed and dried many time. I tried it just to see if it would work, and it did. It also got out a ink stain on a work vest.

You can buy it in Michaels crafts, for just a few dollars a bar. It removes oil paint, ink, grease, etc from clothing. I just rub some into the stain and let sit a few minutes and it usually washes the stain right out. Have used on fresh stains and previously washed and dried stains. I Highly recommend it! In fact i need to get up there to get a bar myself.

They also have a company web site. I don't sell the stuff but I do buy it online. ss Report Spam or Abuse Request: Dried On Cooking Oil On Clothing Post by lewis_admin (1272) | (03/02/2005) Profile | Blog! | Contact Can anyone help me ... I did not realize a piece of clothing had cooking oil on it before washing - washed in cold water, dried as per usual ... discovered grease stain after washed and dried. Any way of getting out a grease stain once a piece of clothing has been dried in the dryer? Thanks. bizzymum Answers: RE: Dried On Cooking Oil On Clothing Use Dawn dish soap on the oil spot, full strength and rub it in. Then wash as usual. I'll be very surprised if that oil stain is still there when you dry it again. If the stain is still a little visible, repeat the process. I just had that happen with a teal turtle neck and it worked like a charm. Hope this helps! (03/03/2005) By Luvyabye RE: Dried On Cooking Oil On Clothing Try Lestoil! It works great on any kind of oil stains - even the ones your husband gets while working on the car! (03/03/2005) By Maureen RE: Dried On Cooking Oil On Clothing I just found Janie Dry Spot Remover at Joann's Crafts and it is wonderful! I had oil, grease spots on dark T-shirts and tops. I have tried many things, but because they are dark, it would make a spot. Janie's is magic! (They have been washed and dried previously also!) (05/02/2005) By Mary Jane RE: Dried On Cooking Oil On Clothing Lestoil works, but it smells BAD! I found a degreaser from amway that works wonders, it's an aeorsol can, spray and presto.
