How to Solve Lubricating Oil/Motor Oil Stains with Shout®
Shout® Wipe&Go™ 12ct is the best product for this type of stain, but our other products will work as your next-best option.
Follow these steps to clean lubricating oil/motor oil stains with Shout®
Step 1.
Blot any excess and check the label. Make sure your garment is colorfast and washable and says nothing about being “dry-clean only.” If the item meets both of those requirements, you’re ready for Step 2.
Step 2.
Pretreat the stain with Shout® Wipe&Go™ 12ct or one of the other recommended products. Be sure to rub it in for deep penetration.
Step 3.
Show some patience, but not too much. You should only wait 1-5 minutes before washing your stain in the warmest water your item recommends. It would be a bad idea for your clothes to let Shout® Advanced Grease Busting Foam dry before the wash.
Shout® Warning.
If you’re using Shout® Advanced Ultra Concentrated Gel Brush on bright, khaki, or fluorescent colored clothes, do not let the product sit for longer than a few minutes.
Shout® pro tips:
- If some stain remains and the garment is bleachable, re-launder with bleach and detergent
- If your item is made of delicate fabric, try not to rub too hard
- If you’re on the go, portability is what makes Shout® Wipe & Go the best product for this type of stain
