WFMW: Remove Grease from Clothing

So last summer I was shopping with my daughters. I had the umbrella stroller to help keep them contained. While shopping, I was hanging my purchases on the stroller handles.

You can see where this is going, right?

Well, I checked out in the midst of a meltdown and didn’t see this grease spot from the stroller until months later. It sat on my washer for another few months.

How in the world was I going to get this axel grease out of these brand new pajamas? Coke.

Yep.

To use, place your clothing in the washing machine with about 1/2L of Coke. Wash as normal in hot water.

This is what it looked like after 2 washes like described above. It’s not 100% but you can barely see it now!

Do you have a stain removal trick?

    A reason to buy coke! LOL. Thanks for the tip. I always thought grease spots were incurable. I’ll definitely be trying this!
