Washable Fibers
Follow these steps to remove cooking grease and auto grease stains from washable fibers such as Acrylic Fabric, Cotton, Linen, Modacrylic, Olefin, Polyester and Spandex:
- Blot up the excess grease as soon as possible.
- Apply an absorbent and let it soak up the spill.
- After brushing out the powder on the laundry stains, sponge the area with a dry-cleaning solvent, K2r Spot Lifter or Afta Cleaning Fluid.
- Then apply a dry spotter to any remaining stain.
- Cover the stain with an absorbent pad dampened with dry spotter and let it remain in place until no more stain is lifted.
- Change the pad as it picks up the stain.
- To help loosen the stain, occasionally tamp (the method of bringing a brush down with light strokes on stained durable fabrics and materials) the area, blotting up any loosened material.
- Flush with one of the liquid dry-cleaning solvents.
If any trace of stain remains:
