OMG! The dish washing detergent works like a charm on ugly black car grease. The stain was gone by the time I applied the dish washing liquid and began rubbing. Thank you.

I got a new coat for Christmas and it was rather expensive. I got my sleeve caught in the car door which left a big grease stain. I tried this website and I used the Dawn. I scraped it with my nail and it came right out. Very impressive!

I see a lot of feedback for car grease but my husband got car OIL on his new shirt (a lot of it) while under the car changing oil. I have used shout 2X with no luck. Does anyone know how to get this out? Thanks

RE: Removing Car Grease Stains From Clothing
Thank you SO much for the recommendation of the Dawn dish soap! I got out of my car this morning and to my HORROR discovered that the bottom of my brand-new white jeans were covered in some kind of car grease from the parking-brake pedal. I came across this site (from Google) and since we had some here at work, I tried that. Worked like MAGIC! I just dabbed some Dawn on with a paper towel, then scratched at the stain with my fingernail and it started to disappear. Then I just rinsed out the stain and its totally clean and white. Thank you! Thank you!!

I guess it might depend on the kind of grease stain as I just tried using vegetable oil without any luck by my 'tough on grease' dish washing up liquid worked a treat! Thanks

NO CHEMICAL METHOD / VERY INEXPENSIVE:
I got a big black sticky stain on my brand new very white shirt. I was so depressed. When I got home, everyone told me use this and use that. But my mom said use some vegetable oil. I doubted her so. But I tried it. I lightly scrapped off the thick grease with a knife, being gentle. Then I put some oil on a napkin and rubbed it off completely. I kept changing the napkin though to keep a clean scene. It came of immediately. I then washed the shirt right after in the washer alone with detergent , no bleach and it was like I just bought it. I was so happy. This is a simple and very cheap method. And best of all no chemicals were used the weaken the fabric itself.
Thanks very much Amanda - Our dog chased cat under car and got grease on himself, jumper and cat. Your method removed the lot from jumper and is working it free from the pet's coats.

I cannot agree more with the WD-40 idea. IT'S A MIRACLE. You may have to add a little Dawn(R) Dishwashing liquid - but I swear my husband's jeans look better than when first purchased.
NOW, ONE OTHER USE - What about dryed LATEX PAINT on jeans? I've had luck with WD-40 and a pumice stone (1/2 way through the wash cycle). As an artist, I've saved a whole lot of pairs of jeans that way!

MeanGreen works awesome too. Removes car grease, food stains, diesel smoke, diesel fuel, nastiness from Steel Mills and anything else you can possibly imagine. Anything that a truck driver can possibly bring dragging home it removes it LOL trust me. He had alll kinds of stains in his clothes until I discovered spraying the clothes with MeanGreen works wonders.

My kids just got car grease on their jackets. I went a bit nuts when I saw it then I looked it up to see what can I do to remove it. All I did was dishwashing soap and baking soda, also a bit of shout. Work them in a paste and scrub with toothbrush, it's all gone!

Dish soap works great on grease stains.

That Dawn does work on the grease! After the 5 minute wait, with a small amount of Dawn directly on the stain, I scrubed the area with my fingernail and the grease stain went away totally.

I have fifth wheel grease from a commercial trailer, will the wd-40 and dish soap work for that as well? If it will can I use that mixture on 50/50 type shirts and special fabric shirts as well?

Spray grease stains with WD-40 it will "loosen" and reactivate the oils.
Let it sit a bit, then apply dawn dish soap to break up the grease.. work it in, rinse, then launder as usual.

My daughter just found a large black grease stain, from our car, on a white nylon jacket. She used Oxi Clean Laundry Stain Remover Spray, and scrubbed it with a paper towel. To our relief, the grease is completely gone.

Be careful if you use Crisoco/vegatable shorting -- it works great but if you let it sit, you will have the grease out but huge discolorations where the spots used to be. Just ask my husband...he tried this idea and thinking that the longer the better would be better....it's not always the best!
