Removing Grease Stains

Hi, I remember my mom using crisco solid shorting on my dad's clothes to get the grease out. She just smired it on the grease and washed it in hot water. Hope it works for you.

I put Dawn dishwashing detergent on my grease stains before tossing the clothes into the washer.

Hi A., I use Shaklee laundry products. My husband is an electrician and does remodeling , and his work clothes are very dirty. I know grease is a hard one -- but I have had success with that too. I was using Shaklee for 5 years and loved them so much I decided to sell them. they are ALL safe and GREEN and economical. here is my website www.shaklee.net/dianeturner/geclean
Let me know if you have any questions. I use the Basic H as a pre-spotter, it is a grease cutter. Nature Bright is amazing, D.

i use dawn dish soap on grease or anything that stains and dawn gets it all out. my husband drove truck too and dawn brought the grease out.

We like to use GREASED LIGHTING it works great for that and other laundry stains. It is a great all around cleaner and it is inexpensive.

I would go online and check out Quick 'n Brite.
Read about it.
I have used it for years and it works on kitchen grease.
Also, you might try applying some cheap shampoo to the clothing spots before you wash in hot water.
These will probably do the trick for you.

Dawn dish detergent works really good. Just spot treat the grease stains with Dawn and wash as normal. Good luck!

go to the local car parts store. Purchase a hand degreaser. There are several that work great and I have used them to remove motor oil from jeans and work shirts. Read that label and make sure they are safe for fabrics.

I just asked a question about greasy stains too. People recommended Lestoil, Iron Out, and Dawn dishwashing detergent.

Try Dawn dishwashing liquid, full strength, directly on the area. If that doesn't get it, try Goop or Lava. It's what mechanics use to get the grease off their hands.

Hi A.,
I use Watkins Degreaser: http://www.watkinsonline.com/productdetail.cfm?Product=06...

My mom always told me to use Lestoil on greasy stains and I finally tried it a couple of months ago on a stained sweatshirt that I had washed numerous times. It was as good as new when I took it out of the dryer! Put Lestoil directly on the stain and rub just a little. Let it sit for just a little while and then wash as usual. Don't let it dry before washing.

Hope it works for you.

A., Have you tried the Lestoil product ? You pour it directly on the spot, or 1/4 cup in the washtub. Sometimes it pays to let the stain soak with the lestoil on it , first. Give it a try , if haven't already. C.

I use Prespot and then laundry detergent by Melaleuca. It uses all natural enzymes and tea tree oil to clean clothes, and it can get anything out. You can email me personally if you need help finding out how to get it.

Hi A.! My hubby is also a truck driver. We usually put some dawn dish soap in with the laundary. It's got that grease cutting agent in it that works wonders on dishes. Not too much though or you'll be over-run by bubbles. Good luck!
