    OH has an olive oil mark on a jumper, which has gone through the wash and not disappeared all on it own....(funnily enough)

    Will stardrops still work on this stain? and is it likely to lighten the fabric? and if it won't work what else can I use??

    I dripped the oil onto him, trying to get him to taste my cooking....I'll be gutted if I can't get the stain out....(and I forget about it when the item went in the wash!)

    Thank you

    Washing up liquid is designed to remove this kind of grease. I never use anything else for food stains.
    May all your dots fall silently to the ground.

    Hi

    Hope I'm posting this in the right place.

    I've spilt some olive oil on my favourite jeans - how do I get the stain out? I have to wear them til the end of the day as I'm in work.

    Can I save them?

    Thanks
