WD-40 works great on grease in clothes. even colored clothes. it is also great to get out crayon, lipstick, salad dressing.
Good Luck!

wet the stain with tepid water then add a big tablespoon of baking powder to a very small amount of water pour on top of the stain this will loosen the grease leave like this for 1/2 hr then wash as normal, you say it´s been washed already, never mind it still could come out just don´t wash in any higher than a 30cº or wash by hand until the stain is removed

Haha Don't use WD-40! That in itself is a grease. Use straight dish soap and scrub gently with a clean toothbrush before you put it in the washer. This works for me.

Try rubbing a tiny amount of fairy liquid into the front and back of the stain before washing it. I use this for most stains and it seems to work. Good Luck!!

try this website www.tipical mary ellen. She had a show at one point with great tips. Not sure if she has a site or if the show is still running though. It's worth a shot.
