My husband is the world champion shirt stainer...grease drips are the worst. and once the shirt has been washed and dried, it seemed impossible to get the stain out until I tried soaking the entire stain in dish soap (Dawn or other...Palmolive works and so does a thorough soaking with a shampoo that doesn't have conditioner in it. Fold the item up and throw it in the laundry basket until time to do the wash. Wash the item with the usual companions and Boom! no more stain..I've done this about 10 times and it works every time...tried it on my own clothes,, as well...seems to be the time the soap stays on the fabric and has a chance to really soak into the fibers. I have a front loader...no problems.
