How do you get cooking oil out of clothing?

Answer 1

I agree with the people who say Dawn dish soap. I work in a restaurant and I get a lot of cooking oil and grease on my uniforms. I pre-treat the area with Dawn and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes and soak that area with water. Then I throw it in the wash like normal. Works everytime.

Answer 2

First, use Shout on it. Use the Shout that comes in the squeeze bottle, not the spray. Completely saturate the area. Let it sit for a while (30 mins.) Use a toothbrush to scrub the Shout into the fabric weaving. Let it sit a while (30 mins.) Then soak the clothing in cold water with liquid Tide (the kind with bleach alternative works best). Scrub the area that is stained. Soak for about 30 mins. Drain and rinse. Allow the clothing to drip dry. If the oil is still there, try the same process with a degreaser instead of Shout. You can get a degreaser at an auto parts store. Before placing the clothing in the washer or dryer, make sure to wash out the degreaser COMPLETELY. Soak it in the sink with detergent and water for about thirty minutes and rinse. Never put oil stained clothing or degreaser soaked clothing in a hot dryer. It could cause a fire.

Or buy a can of cooking oil

Answer 9

You don't have to use any specific product. Follow the instructions on the laundry detergent container for "pretreating". If there aren't any, then you a) make a paste with the solids of the detergent and some water, of b) dilute the liquid detergent a little bit. Then, put the pretreatment on the place with the oil and let it rest for about half an hour. After half an hour, take the clothing with the pretreated spot on it and wash normally, according to the clothing manufacturer's instructions or the instructions on the detergent container. It should come out, but if it doesn't, try a few more times.

Answer 10

Spread out the portion that has cooking oil stain onto a folder newspaper. Also, cover the portion with another folder newspaper (say 2-4 sheets both sides of the stained cloth)

Take a hot iron and press on the upper newspaper. All the grease gets blotted out into the lower newspaper and the one on top leaving the clothing clean.

Answer 11

DAWN DISH soap, use a toothbrush to scrub it, after letting it sit about 10 minutes. Rule out any thing that takes longer than 10 minutes. When you are ready to throw it in the wash add oxi clean to the wash. And most important, don't dry the piece of clothing that had the oil stain on it until you inspect the area to make sure that the stain is gone...drying will set the stain into the material. My ex-husband used to use Clorox Stain out...it got hydraulic oil out of my clothes even after the stain had been set in.
