Tackling Oil Stains with Ease

Oil stains can be one of the most frustrating types of stains to remove from clothing, especially since they tend to set quickly and leave behind greasy marks. Whether from cooking, makeup, or even a spill while eating, oil stains seem to cling to fabric, making cleaning feel like a chore. However, with the right technique and the right products, you can easily remove those pesky oil stains and keep your clothes looking fresh.

In this guide, we’ll show you the best ways to get rid of oil stains using Bio-D’s Laundry Liquid and Laundry & Stain Remover Bar, two powerful, eco-friendly solutions that tackle stains without harming your fabrics or the environment.

  1. Pre-Treat with Bio-D’s Non-Bio Laundry Liquid

One of the most effective ways to remove oil stains is by pre-treating the stain with a laundry detergent. Bio-D’s Laundry Liquid is a great solution because it’s designed to break down oils and grime without the use of harsh chemicals. Here’s how you can use it to treat your oil stains:

Steps to Remove Oil Stains:

  • Apply Laundry Liquid: Pour a small amount of undiluted Bio-D Laundry Liquid directly onto the oil stain. You can use your fingers or a small brush to work the liquid gently into the fibres of the fabric.
  • Soak for Five Minutes: Allow the stain to sit and soak in Bio-D Laundry Liquid for about 5 minutes, this gives the detergent time to break down the oils and grease trapped in the fabric.
  • Wash as Usual: After the stain has been pre-treated, wash the item in your washing machine as usual, following the care label instructions. You should notice the oil stain is completely gone!

This method works wonders on a variety of fabrics, from cotton to polyester, and ensures your clothes come out fresh and clean.

  1. Use Bio-D’s Laundry & Stain Remover Bar for Targeted Action

If you prefer a more hands-on approach, Bio-D’s Laundry & Stain Remover Bar is another fantastic option for removing oil stains. This bar works well for smaller, localised stains and is a great travel companion for on-the-go washing and stain removal.

Steps to Remove Oil Stains:

  • Wet the Stain and Bar: Start by wetting the stained area of the fabric and the Laundry & Stain Remover Bar with hot water.
  • Rub the Bar into the Stain: Gently rub the bar onto the stain, working it into the fabric with a bit of pressure to allow the formulation to break down the oil.
  • Let Sit for a Few Minutes: Allow the formulation to sit on the fabric for about 5-10 minutes, this will give it enough time to break down the oils in the fabric.
  • Rinse and Launder: After the stain has had time to soak, rinse the area with water and then wash the clothing as usual in your washing machine.

Both of these Bio-D products have been extensively tested and are proven to remove oil stains completely. They’re gentle on your fabrics and the environment, ensuring that you’re not only cleaning your clothes but also taking care of the planet.

  1. Pro Tips for Preventing Oil Stains in the Future

While it’s great to know how to remove oil stains when they happen, prevention is always better than a cure! Here are some helpful tips to prevent oil stains from ruining your clothes in the first place:

  • Use an Apron: When cooking, always wear an apron to shield your clothing from grease and oil splatters.
  • Blot, Don’t Rub: If you spill oil on your clothes, gently blot the area with a clean cloth rather than rubbing, which can push the stain deeper into the fabric.
  • Treat Stains Quickly: The faster you act on an oil stain, the easier it is to remove. Treat the stain as soon as possible to prevent it from setting.
