Things You'll Need
Liquid dishwashing soap
Laundry detergent
Shampoo
It's a common mishap. Right in the middle of a meal, some greasy food falls off your fork onto your clothing, leaving a greasy spot that looks like it's permanent. But don't throw the clothing away. You can get the stain out and get your clothing looking like new once again.
Step 1
Apply a mild liquid dishwashing soap directly to the grease stain. Rub it into the stain with your fingers. Let it sit for 30 minutes.
Step 2
Wash the clothing in the washing machine. Along with your regular laundry detergent, add 1/4 cup of the dishwashing liquid to the wash load.
Step 3
Inspect the clothing after washing it. If the stain is gone, dry the clothing as normal. If the stain remains, move on the the next step.
Step 4
Pour a little bit of shampoo onto the grease stain and repeat Steps 1 to 3.
Warning
Don't place stained clothes in the dryer. The heat will set the stain.
