Removing Grease Stain - Tried Lots of Things

RE: Removing Grease Stain - Tried Lots of Things Post By Heather (Guest Post) (09/25/2008) A friend told me spray with WD-40 and then use Dawn dish soap...Apparently the WD-40 resets the set-in stain then the Dawn will take out the "fresh" stain...Haven't tried it yet, but definitely gonna give it whirl...

He threw his shirt downstairs to throw it away later. Somehow it got in the wash and then the dryer. Washing didn't create the problem buy it ruined everything in the dryer including the dryer drum. All of my good outfits too. I was sick and crying and could not believe this had happened. I had heard grease takes out grease and the first thing I ran across was WD40. I had never heard of this .It was already ruined I thought so what did I have to lose by spraying. All the tar came out and I rewashed a couple of times to get the smell out and my clothes were good as new.

Let it set for several hours and brush it off. Repeat until oil/grease is absorbed and gone.

When I have what seems to be impossible grease stains, I liberally spread dawn, wait 5 minutes and wash. I have never had a stain get passed the Dawn dishsoap.

Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Grease Stain - Tried Lots of Things Post By Faye (Guest Post) (01/04/2005) As a last resort, ammonia has been very effective for me. You can pour it directly on the stain then launder as usual. You can also put a cup or two into your load of laundry.

Just apply it directly, let it soak in for a few minutes, then wash normally (warm to hot water). You may need to rewash to remove the odor.

Just put a bit on, rub in and wash. It works on set in stains also. Really bad ones may need two washings. Report Spam or Abuse
