  March 13, 2018

Grease stains are stubborn. They fight for their existence and resist efforts to eliminate them. Removing them is not easy. You cannot remove them with regular cleaning. If you want to remove grease stains from your clothing then you have two options – you either get professional help from a laundry services provider, or try DIY grease removal methods.

In this blog, we are going to share three excellent do-it-yourself grease removal ideas with you. Without further ado, here they are:

1. Baking Soda

You can eliminate grease stains with baking soda. Firstly, wet the stained area with water and then sprinkle the baking soda on it. Leave the cloth like this for 10-15 minutes and then rub it gently with a sponge. The grease stain should be gone.

2. Cornstarch

Cornstarch can help you remove obstinate grease stains from your clothing. Take cornstarch in a small quantity on a sponge and then gently rub the stain with it until the stain accepts its defeat and leaves your garment. Cornstarch is a great substance to remove grease stains from carpets as well. You can sprinkle the powder on the carpet and then use a vacuum cleaner to pick it up.

3. Liquid Dish Detergent Cleaner

The liquid dish detergent that you use to clean your utensils can remove the grease stains from your clothing as well. Apply the liquid on the stain and leave it for 10-15 minutes. Then put a few drops again to wet the stain and then rub it gently with a sponge. The grease stain should be gone.

However, before trying these methods on your clothing, read the label to see if the garment can be cleaned at home, or it is for dry cleaning only. If it is for dry cleaning, then it would not be a wise move to attempt to remove the stains. Leave them to the professionals.
