Anything to remove grease strains from a playground swing on shorts?

Question

My friend's child was swinging on a playground swing and perhaps the sweat mixed with the coating on the swing left the grease stains. Please feel free to share how you have gotten such stains out or if you know how. Thank you so much!

Answer 1

Try Lystoil-its a household cleaner-but I used it when my husband used to work as a mechanic to remove oil stains from his clothes. It worked great.

Answer 2

Try washing in coke. My husband had a brand new coat covered in oil from one of the plants. I was told about coke & tried it. The coat came out looking like new. Just start your wash like usual, then add a can of coke.. Good luck..

Answer 3

Pine Sol - mix with a little vinegar - soak for maybe five minutes wash if possible on warm - (check fabric first)

Answer 4

try goo gone or GOOP cleaner
everytime when our hands got dirty from working on our car-like changing the oil-we used GOOP and then the oil stains and slipperyness was gone!~
here in tennessee you can find GOOP at dollar tree
but good luck!
