I wouldn't scrub with a brush, it looks like it would damage the fabric. In my country, when we get an oil stain sitting at a table, we quickly sprinkle salt over it and wash it later. I suppose it acts just like the baking soda, but salt is right there on the table. Anyway, glad you managed to get the stain off!BlackKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014093330317682849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-83549302137524273242014-11-09T16:49:45.932-07:002014-11-09T16:49:45.932-07:00Perfect timing - I have a really small oil stain o...Perfect timing - I have a really small oil stain on one of my tops - right about nipple height, so looks like I've leaked!basketcasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423309373403650082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-40762807398053336952014-11-06T09:13:07.688-07:002014-11-06T09:13:07.688-07:00I agree with Sara and Sherron.

I learned that from the master chemist at work when I spilled an entire vial of silicone oil on my shirt. You just need to lightly scrub the soap in so it comes in contact with all of the oil and let it sit for awhile. Rinse if you have tons of soap on the stain, otherwise just throw in the laundry on warmest setting the fabric can handle.

I would ... I'm impressed that it came out- YAY! I would possibly consider scrubbing the fabric from the inside just so that it didn't wear the fabric from the right side. I've had great success with using liquid dish detergent to remove oil stains- but it is always great to have another option that works available! One word of caution, though- I'd recommend air drying the fabric to make sure that the stain is out before setting the stain in with the heat from the dryer.

No scrubbing! Seems counter-productive to put oil on oil but my flatmate and I tried this after everything else failed and got rid of stains that were weeks old!
