Even after it dried hard and was set in, I sprayed it on, used an old tooth brush, (at the time I should have used my ex husbands!) and scrubbed the WD 40 into the garment and it took all the white out away. I then rubbed in my Era laundry detergent and washed as usual. All gone, good as before the spill.
