I used Dawn dish soap to get my cooking oil stains out of my clothes.

Dawn works, so does Shout. The key with these is to let the product work awhile before washing the item. I usually pretreat the item and let the spot/stain remover work for at least 1/2 an hour before washing. If you've got a really stubborn one, get some Simple Green. It's a concentrated spray cleaner you can get in paint, hardware, automotive and some grocery stores. Just give the spot a spray and let the Simple Green work for awhile. Then launder as usual. I've used Simple Green to remove axle grease from jeans and it works like a charm. But ya have to give any product time to work before washing.

Put a pinch of cornstarch or baby powder with cornstarch on the spot. Rub it in. Wait as long as you can (10 minutes or a day). Dust it off and wash it as you would. You can skip the washing step if the t-shirt is on your body -- just keep dusting it. If the spot doesn't go away, repeat the process with the cornstarch. Cornstarch absorbs the oil out of the fabric.

Use Dawn dish washing liquid it breaks up any oil stain fast! Be sure to use cold water to make it really lather.

nothing will remove a saturated oil stain out of any material, made for clothes, if you cook alot, try a apron that drapes from your neck. are invest into some good dye, and tye dye them babies.

I swear by Goo Gone. I haven't found anything that it won't remove from clothing. My son gets motor oil on his shirts and it takes it out like magic.

I also agree with using Dawn...and just letting it sit in for a bit. Another product that works really well is Greased Lightning...it's a household cleaner (degreaser) that I wouldn't be without and can also be used to pre-treat laundry.

Try putting Dawn dish soap on the spot, rubbing it in and then washing it.

spray the stain with simple green or any other degreeser...simple green works best though...and wash as normal.
