A couple of things I've found...first, husband and i wear a lot of tee shirt knit tops and polo shirts and inevitably, something on the way to the mouth will land on the shirt and leave a greasy stain. I tried everything until I reached the end of my rope. Last ditch effort, I soaked the stain with blue dawn, folded it in on itself and threw a shirt into the laundry basket, where it sat for a couple of days...washed it with the normal load and Bingo!! stain is gone. The trick must be in letting the detergent sit for a bit of time in order to penetrate the fabric.

The other trick is when buying Windex, do Not by the 'new advanced' one...look for something that says Original. That's the one with the ammonia and the ammonia is what does the job...will clean a mirror behind the stove in a New York minute!
