Shari on May 21, 2015I agree that soaking in Oxiclean will probably work if you already have it on hand but thanks to HomeTalk I found another great stain treating product that has become an important staple in my laundry room. It's called ZOUT. It comes in an orange spray bottle and I found it at Walmart. I have been shocked at the number of stains I have been able to remove with it. Greasy stains and even many old set-in stains are no match for Zout. The stuff is simply unbelievable!Helpful Reply

B. Enne on May 21, 2015I used to treat khaki uniform pants with Resolve ( the 2 part liquid). I would treat both sides of the stain, rub with the cap (trying not to spread it) and leave it for 5-10 minutes. I would then rub it and rinse with very warm water. Sometimes, I would treat a 2nd time (if needed--rarely), and then wash. Always double check before drying because it can set or turn red. I usually air dried them to make sure. I prefer powdered Resolve over Oxiclean. I actually bleached out a spot on khakis pre-treating with Oxiclean, and I found the Oxiclean didn't clean as well.Helpful Reply

Linda Cabler on May 21, 2015Try putting some soda right on the mustard stain and pouring white vinegar over it. Put aluminum foil under the stain f irst so it wont go through onto anothe place in the pants.Helpful Reply
