How to remove oil stains from linen cotton blend skirt -- HELP!?


Question:I just bought this cute skirt from Walmart...

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.d...

Then, one of the first times I wore it, somehow, I'm not even sure how, I got some kind of oil on the front of it...I think it was an Italian salad dressing because that was the only oil I can remember being exposed to that day. Does anyone know of a way to get the oil completely out? I tried rubbing it out with a damp cloth but it seemed to wear the fabric down. I was going to just go and buy anther one, but they are out of stock online! ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED! Serious answers only please!

Answers:
I have gotten oil in many shirts and the best solution by far is using Dawn and working it into the stain with a toothbrush, let is sit and then wash it. No matter what do not dry it until the stain is out or it will set it.


Try a mechanic's hand cleaner like Goop or GoJo.
They are made for grease & oil .
Rub it in & throw it in the wash.
Saved a tablecloth for my wife with it.
Starch is extremely helpful, I used it ones on my school uniform. Fanastic.
If this didn't help, add some yougart over the stain.
