Removing grease stains from clothes when they've already been washed and dried

[Janetsmug]

Does anyone have a magic fix for this please? Will fairy liquid still work or is that only on 'fresh' stains?

Still works in my experience

Will give it a whirl then, thanks. So bloody annoyed, marks weren't really visible until it had been washed/dried or would have treated with fairy beforehand 😠

I've recently had success with Elbow Grease spray, sprayed directly onto the stain and left for 5 mins then put into the wash again.

If the washing up liquid on its own doesn’t work try it again and this time pour on a lot of salt. Make it into a thick paste and rub in well. Scrape the worst off and wash as normal.

Talcum powder. Rub it into the greasy patch, then put an absorbent cloth over it (eg a flannel) and iron it with a hot iron and pressing hard. Then use the flannel to brush off any residual talc.
