    Default how to get rid of grease stain on clothes ?

    Grease from cooking oil that is. So far I've tried rubbing corn starch, chalk, pre treated with detergent and didn't give good result. What has/have worked for you for both fresh stain and old ones ? Thanks

    something like Dawn hand dishwashing soap could work.

    My mil gave me a degreaser concentrate that she buys from someone (an independant sales consultant of some sort??). I wish I could tell you where to buy it because it REALLY works!

    Shout advanced gel for a few minutes and then put it in washing machine with warm/hot water w/ oxyclean. Let it soak and then go through the cycle. I have had to repeat before, but it almost always gets it out the first time.

    I've had good luck with Zout. I haven't been able to find it in the stores lately, but it looks like it is on Amazon.

    I recently started using the Resolve stain stick, and it does really well on grease! My previous method involved liberally sprinkling baby powder on the stains, leaving overnight, using a towel to brush off much of the powder the next day, and then washing. This absolutely works, but it does sometimes take a couple of treatments. I usually air dry the offending garment just to make sure it's clean. If it isn't, i do the powder thing again.
