INTRODUCTION:
Grease stains can be a common and frustrating problem for 
those who care about their clothes. Whether it's a splash from 
cooking oil or a smear from working on your car, dealing with 
grease marks can be challenging. However, with the right 
techniques and products, you can removing grease stains 
effectively and restore your garments to their former glory.
IDENTIFY THE STAIN:
Before treating the grease stain, it's essential to identify the type of 
fabric you're dealing with. Different fabrics may require different 
cleaning methods to avoid damage. For instance, delicate fabrics, such 
as silk or wool, may require specialized detergent or dry cleaning, 
while durable fabrics like cotton, polyester, or nylon can withstand 
more intense cleaning.
BLOT THE STAIN:
Blot the stain with a clean cloth to remove any excess grease without 
spreading it further. Use a white cloth or paper towel to prevent any 
dyes from transferring onto the fabric.
PRE-TREAT THE STAIN:
Apply a small amount of dish soap, laundry detergent, or a pre-treatment stain 
remover directly onto the grease stain. Choose a detergent containing enzymes, 
as they break down the grease and oils effectively. Gently rub the detergent into 
the stain using your fingers or a soft-bristled brush, working from the outside of 
the stain towards the center. Allow the detergent to penetrate the stain for a few 
minutes, but avoid leaving it for too long, as it may cause discoloration or 
damage to the fabric.
LET IT SIT:
Let the detergent penetrate the grease stain for at least 10-15 minutes to break 
down the oils and loosen the stain. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing the stain 
excessively, as this can push the grease deeper into the fabric fibers.
WASH AS USUAL:
After pre-treating the stain, launder the garment as usual 
using the hottest water temperature recommended for the 
fabric. High heat settings can cause the stain to set 
permanently, so avoid using them. Add an extra boost of 
cleaning power by including a scoop of oxygen-based 
bleach or white vinegar to the wash cycle. Oxygen-based 
bleach is safer than chlorine bleach, which can damage 
some fabrics.
CHECK BEFORE DRYING:
Before drying the garment, check to ensure that the grease 
stain has been completely removed. If any traces of the 
stain remain, repeat the pre-treatment and washing process 
until the stain is gone. Avoid heat drying until the stain is 
entirely removed, as the heat can set the stain permanently.
AIR DRY OR TUMBLE DRY:
Once the stain is removed, air dry the garment if possible to prevent any 
remaining grease from setting into the fabric. If using a dryer, avoid 
high heat settings, as this can cause the grease stain to become more 
difficult to remove. Use a low heat setting and remove the garment 
before it's completely dry to prevent wrinkles.
