grease stains - especially ones that have sat a while - can be resistant even to multiple washings.

the #1 solution i found for these when i lived in the US was Goop hand cleaner.

i think you can get it pretty much anywhere but definitely places that serve automotive needs. mechanics use it to remove automotive grease and grunge from their hands. but it works for clothes on for any greasy/oily type stain.

you rub a little on the stain, leave it sit for a little and then wash normally in water as hot as the clothing will tolerate (some items may only take cold).

done.

my mother adopted this as well but now here they don't sell it. nowadays she will sometimes re-apply fresh oil to an old oil stain to dissolve it before washing it.
