Materials and Cleaning Products Needed

Step-by-Step Instructions
- Gently scrape off as much of grease and oil as possible using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid rubbing it into the fabric.
- Mix together a solution of two tablespoons of laundry detergent, one cup of white vinegar and two cups of warm water. Soak a soft brush or cloth into solution and gently scrub the stain.
- Rinse the fabric and allow the excess liquid to dry. If the stain remains, mix together a paste using baking soda and water. Apply the paste directly onto the stain, use a damp cloth to rub in paste, rinse and let dry.
- If all else fails, try applying a few drops of dishwashing detergent or dish soap onto the stain and then scrubbing gently with a soft cloth. Rinse with cold water and allow to dry.
