Topic: Can anyone help

[rosebud]

Hi folks,does anybody know how i can get a greasespot (duck) out of a brand new top, (red), i have hand washed it but it is still there a bit wary of spot cleaners because of its colour.  To expensive to just dispose of.
Any suggestions pleeeeease.

how about good old washing up liquid? It's worked for me before.

you could try sandwiching between two pieces of (non shiny) brown paper and ironing.
blotting paper works best but few people have any in the house!
another good way is to surround the stain with washing up liquid. gently rub the circle of w-u-l in towards the centre, then wash as normal.
good luck, Tara xx

i can vouch for washing up liquid on 'proper' grease stains. works for me and i have not yet spoiled a piece of clothing :)

Another one for washing up liquid.  I also use vanish on the kids stuff, but that isn't expensive so wouldn't know how it would react on something spesh...

And instead of blotting paper I use loo paper . . .
