OxiClean™ Laundry + Home Stain Remover Spray can help to treat grease and other stains so they're easier to remove in the wash.
OxiClean™ Max Force™ Laundry Stain Remover Spray helps to loosen and remove set-in stains, plus gets rid of grease, oil, grass and more stains on laundry items.
I've had great success with using dish soap and baking soda to get grease stains out of clothing. Mix them together to form a paste and let it sit on the stain for an hour or so. After that, just scrub it off with hot water and you should be good to go! It's a great way to save your favorite clothing items.
Don't use OxiClean on wool, silk, or other off-limits fabrics. OxiClean's manufacturer suggests that it should not be used on the following fabrics: wool, wool blends, silk, silk blends, leather, or on fabrics labeled dry-clean only.
Always test OxiClean™ Versatile Stain Remover on an inconspicuous area first. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the item for water temperature and for cleaning. Do not use on wool, wool blends, silk, silk blends, leather, or any fabrics labeled dry clean only.
OxiClean is the go-to for those tough stains and deep cleaning jobs, especially when it comes to laundry and those occasional big cleaning tasks. Baking soda, with its versatility, gentle nature, and low cost, is perfect for everyday cleaning, getting rid of smells, and as a base for making your own cleaning mixes.
Old oil stains can be very stubborn, but it is possible to remove them. If a garment has been washed and dried and the oil stain still remains, using an enzyme-based cleaner to pretreat the stain rather than dish soap may increase the chance of being able to remove it.
Yes, you can add detergent to the load as well as oxyclean and it will boost the performance of your favorite kind. It's hilarious that the manufacturer responded first, but everyone seems to know better.
Baby powder, chalk, or corn-starch
Leave your powder to rest for 10-15 minutes so that it has an ample amount of time to completely absorb the grease. After 10-15 minutes, use a toothbrush, or alternative soft-bristled brush, to remove all of the powder. Finally, wash your garment using a cold water setting.
OxiClean™ Laundry + Home Stain Remover Spray can help to treat grease and other stains so they're easier to remove in the wash. It attacks tough dried-in stains to help keep your items looking fresh and ready to wear again in no time.
Gently rub liquid dish soap (for handwashing), stain pretreatment or liquid enzyme detergent into the stain and let sit for 10 minutes. If using liquid dish soap for handwashing, be sure to fully remove the soap by rinsing thoroughly before placing the item in the washer.
Wash and dry normally with an enzyme-based detergent for extra washing power such as Persil® ProClean®. Fun tip! Some mechanics swear by adding a can of cola to the wash as it helps clean and also deodorize the garment.
WD-40 is a petroleum-based lubricant that can cause stains on clothes. But it also can help to remove stains. The solvents in WD-40 help to break down oil—especially old oily stains—loosening the oil molecules from fabric fibers. Simply spray the stain with a bit of WD-40 from the front and back of the fabric.
Yes, there are many common household items that work great when dealing with oil stains on clothing. Tide Liquid Laundry Detergent, clear dish soaps, white vinegar, and warm water can all work well at breaking down and lifting even the most stubborn oil stains.
Add ½ cup of baking soda to your washer. Add detergent, like ARM & HAMMER™ Plus OxiClean™ Odor Blasters. Run the wash cycle. Add another ½ cup of baking soda in the rinse cycle.
Your best bet, though, is to buy pure sodium percarbonate (which you can easily find on Amazon for less than $20). Not only does sodium percarbonate not contain any unnecessary additives as do some store-bought products, but Richardson says it's also much stronger than true OxiClean (which means you need less of it).
OxiClean™ is free of chlorine and preservatives, so it's safe on colors and gentle on your clothing – without sacrificing performance or leaving chemical residues. Many detergents break down the fibers and dyes in laundry as they clean, causing severe fading overtime.
