How to remove grease stains from clothes?

My go to to get grease marks out is washing up liquid, rub on leave for an hour, then wash on the hottest wash your jeans can take. Hope this works on the oil marks.

I use Super Clean found in the automotive section at Walmart. It’s a degreaser and got grease out of the carpet and off my husbands jeans. I also use it for a general cleaner around the house but must be diluted first.

My first thought is to use Lestoil. Scrub Lestoil fabric with brush. Let soak for 30 min. Then launder again.

Dawhn dishwashing liquid has never let me down. Pour a small Dawn on spots and brush it into the spots using a damp rag and wash. That should do it. DAWN FOR GREASE.

You'll most likely think I'm nuts, but sometimes this works (and sometimes it doesn't). Try rubbing the area with a piece of soft cloth dipped in mineral oil or olive oil. Get another piece of soft cloth, pour a some blue Dawn on the spots and rub. Hopefully, the grease spots will begin to dissolve and the area will look like it's saturated with a greyish sludge. Throw it in the washer with hot water and hopefully the grease will be gone. Good luck!

Get ‘GOOF OFF’ in the paint section of Cdn Tire.

I use Dawn dishwashing detergent and baking soda. About 1 tbsp dawn to 2 tsp baking soda. It shouldn’t be a paste but thick; use a soft brush to work into material leave for half hour and wash normally.

For some grease stains, try oven cleaner - spay & let setbefore washing in machine - a trick learned from a kitchen worker which has salvaged some of my garments!

Fels Naptha! That stuff is amazing for stains. My hubby is a trucker and farmer so you can imagine the grease and oil stains he gets sometimes. I take a bar of Fels Naptha and dampen both the stained area and the end of the bar. Rub that bar all over the stain and let it sit for at least 20 minutes. Then I take an old toothbrush and gently scrub the area before throwing it in the washer. It is very rare that I have to repeat the process. Try not to throw it in the dryer til you know the stain is gone but I have successfully used this process on set-in stains too. On occasion I've used the old style green Palmolive dish soap (not the new aromatherapy type stuff) if I don't have or can't find the FN and it works really well too. But then I usually have to work at the stain with the toothbrush / rinse, add a bit more Palmolive, repeat til it's gone, rinse then throw in the washer. We can't get FN where I live so I have to wait for hubby to bring me some. A .97 cent bar can last for years if you store it in a ziplock!

My advice is based on personal experience when I used to work in a greasy area. My clothes would get greasy everyday. When I would do laundry the first step was to spray straight ammonia on the grease, which is a fantastic grease cutter and can be purchased at any grocery or dollar store for cheap. Then after the grease spots are saturated, put some liquid laundry soap on top of the spot. Now set the washing machine for a long cycle with warm water and let it wash the grease out of your clothes.

And place a few old towels or a plastic tarp in the trunk of your vehicle with the emergency kit so the next time you will be better prepared.

I'm a handy man and get all kinds of stains and dirt on me all the time and the product I use is "Shout it Out" that's sold right in the washing machine soap aisle. This is a spray that I normally spray on when I put the clothes in the washer or if its a tough one, I spray some on when I put the dirty clothes item ion the hamper and just let it perk until it gets washed. I can't remember the last time it didn't work.

My go to products for grease are either kerosene, lighter fluid or mineral spirits. Lay stained area face soiled side down on something absorbent. I use an old towel. Saturate with solvent. Use another old towel to force solvent through garment into the lower towel. Repeat until stain is gone. Then launder as usual. I hope that the stain wasn't set in with your first attempt at removing it.

Mix blue dawn dishwashing liquid with a small amount of hydrogen peroxide. Pour some on the spot and scrub it in with an old tooth brush. Let it sit for a few minute and launder as you normally would. Hopefully that will get the stain out. Please remember that if the stain is still there or not completely out, DO NOT put the pants in the dryer. The heat in the dryer sets the stain and you may never get it out. Never dry anything you are trying to get a stain out of before you have actually gotten the stain out.

Hi Amy, I use spray nine then sunlight bar soap, I uses a scrub brush to get the cleaner to penetrate the stains, rinse and repeat, use warm water for this, pretreat with the bar soap and don't rinse then throw into wash. If it does not come clean repeat the process, check it BEFORE you toss it into the dryer - heat sets stains

I use Shout and if needed ,Dawn dish soap. let sit a while, then wash.

l use Lestoil its my go to for grease gum permanent marker paint etc im 60 and been my go to for 45 yrs

I use undiluted Simple Green. It is a degreaser normally used in the kitchen. I just spray it on the clothes, let it set for a while, then throw the clothes in the washer on hot water and wash as usual. Done.

Amy, yes, that Simple Green. I spray it on the greasy spots. It has never ruined anything yet. I had a restaurant and that is where I learned about it. Now, I keep it in my laundry room and use it there and for sure use it in my kitchen. I swear by that stuff - love it. Undiluted and diluted.

Blue dawn dish soap and baking soda are my go to's for grease stains, make a light paste, rub it in and let it hang out for at least 1/2 hour. Launder as usual.
