Silk Stain Removal
To spot treat oil stains from silk items, sprinkle cornstarch or baby powder containing cornstarch on item, let sit a few minutes then shake off excess and brush with a soft brush or cloth.
To spot treat water stains on silk, use color-safe bleach or a mix of one part hydrogen peroxide and eight parts water. After treating the stain, hand wash using a protein hair shampoo and don´t twist or pull. Handle the silk gently and hang it to dry...=)

For removing stains such as grease from any kind of fabric you need to use the small bottles of stain remover, there are different bottles for different stains so make sure you buy the one that is suitable for removing grease. The bottle can be dabbed on the stain quite liberally and then pop it in the wash and bingo the stain has vanished!

Iron the silk fabric on low with a brown paper bag between the silk and the iron.

Sometimes heat will set in grease stains. Best to take it to a dry cleaner.
If not use dish detergent (which is formulated to break up grease) squirt it on the stain, allow it to sit for a few mins, then hand wash.
Hope this helps.

On regular clothes with grease I put 1 can of coke in the wash, It takes the grease right out. But I don't know about silk. We wont drink coke, because if it can take out grease imagine what it does to the stomach. good luck.

If the silk fabric is washable, then you could try using Watkins Degreaser on it in the wash. Works on everything else I've tried it on.
