Step-by-step method (MAIN TECHNIQUE)

1. Act fast (very important)

• If the stain is fresh, don’t rub it
• Blot gently with a paper towel to absorb excess oi Rubbing spreads grease deeper into fibers

2. Absorb the oil

• Sprinkle baking soda or cornstarch over the stain
• Leave for 15–30 minutes

 This pulls oil out of the fabric

• Brush off the powder gently

3. Apply dish soap

• Put a few drops of dish soap directly on the stain
• Gently rub with fingers or a soft brush

 Dish soap is designed to break down grease (like on dishes)

4. Let it sit

• Leave for 10–15 minutes
  This allows the soap to dissolve the oil completely

5. Rinse with warm water

• Rinse from the back of the stain
  Pushes grease out instead of deeper in

6. Wash normally

• Wash in machine with regular detergent
• Use warm water (if fabric allows)

7. Check before drying

• Make sure stain is gone
  If not → repeat process
  Heat from dryer can set the stain permanently
