Don’t you hate it when you get all the dirt and grime off the tablecloth or any fabric for that matter and there it sits, a dark stain of grease that just won’t come out, no matter how often you wash that fabric.
Well, here are a few suggestions.
#1.Try Simple Green – you can spray it directly on the spot or put a cup of it in the washer. It is a de-greaser and it won’t foam up in the machines causing a bubbling cascade of soap foaming out of the washer. We have found this to be quite successful with our polyester fabrics.
If it is just a small spot you can try the dish washing liquid Dawn. However, it loves to make foam and you should thoroughly rinse the fabric in the sink before putting it back in the washer.
This just in from a friend who is a masseuse and has a ton of towels covered in massage oil. He suggests using the Liquid Cascade Gel with Dawn. It is a dish washing detergent that comes with Dawn already in it. He says it won’t over foam as it is made for the dishwasher. And we all know what happens when that machine gets a little too foamy, we are washing the kitchen floor for the entire evening and using the snow shovel to get rid of the foam. Not that it has happened to me, at least not recently.
Important if you try the Cascade with Dawn for getting out grease on fabric make sure you DO NOT USE THE BLEACH FORMULA. You will be very sad-you won’t have a grease stains but you won’t have any color either.
If you have any other ideas on getting rid of grease stains. Send them along.
Thanks and remember,
Be nice to someone today!
