Steps to Remove Grease and Oil Stains from Your Crop top

  1. Blot and scrape away any excess oil or grease with a soft cloth. Do not rub the stain, as this may spread it further.
  2. Create a paste with baking soda and liquid laundry detergent and apply to the stained area. Let the paste sit on the stain for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Rinse the paste off with warm water.
  4. Create a mixture of 2 parts warm water and 1 part white vinegar and use a soft cloth to blot the stain. Allow the solution to sit for 10-15 minutes.
  5. Rinse off the vinegar solution and blot the fabric dry with a towel.
  6. Repeat steps 3-5 until stain is removed.

Once stain is gone, you can launder crop top as normal.
