I managed to get a big plop of hollandaise sauce on a solid
blue shirt. I immediately put some Lestoil on it and let it
sit for a day or two before I washed it. Lestoil gets out
the vast majority of oily stains like this, but one washer
and dryer cycle later, I've still got an oily blot on my
shirt. This is an old, old favorite shirt, and I'm not
prepared to say goodbye. Anyone have any advice for me?

Shout It Out. Works on all oily stains.

Been there, done that. Have it dry cleaned. It's the only
way.

Will that work even if it's been through the dryer already?

Make more hollandaise, lots of it. Dip the whole shirt in.
Immediately put Lestoil on the whole thing and let it sit
for a day or two. Wash
it. Shirt is now all the same color. Don't laugh. Works.

First of all, never put a stained item in the dryer after
washing until you are certain the stain has come out. Dry
heat can set a lot of stains.

It might take repeated washings for all the oily stain to
come out. Try any of the prewash sprays/sticks. Try a bar of
laundry soap. Try dishwashing detergent (usually has grease
cutters and no bleach).

Dish soap has worked well for me for stuff like this. Work
it in well and then toss it back in the wash.

Yes, if it is just a grease stain. If the material has been
stained yellow by the egg yolk, maybe no. I had a brand new
insulated sweatshirt in light gray. It got an olive oil
stain on it. I tried Shout and dish detergent and a couple
other things. I washed and dried it twice to no avail. I
finally had it dry cleaned. No trace of stain remains. But,
like I said, I think any stain that color dyes the material
will be permenent.

Not true. I used the heavy duty Shout and worked it in
vigorously. Nada.

It may be too late for dry-cleaning since she has already
tried to wash it, though. Certain stains, once they've been
treated with water, will not come out with dry-cleaning.

One can find a number of home remedies for stains. Maybe you
(Jen, not Bob--hee, hee) could try one of them. If all else
fails, use the shirt for sleeping or, even better, dye it a
darker colour. With luck the stain won't be as visible and
you can still wear the shirt.

I'd take it to a dry cleaner. Tell them what it is and what
you've done; they may be able to rescue it. I don't dry treated-
stain garments in the dryer, though, until I'm sure they're
gone; heat usually sets the stain. Good luck with it, Jen!

Ajax dish soap is even better. ;-) I just switched from Dawn
to Ajax on the advice of a good friend, and she was right.

It's also less expensive.

I noticed last night that I'm using Spray-n-Wash,

"formulated for" and "removes" are two completely
different things. Besides, I tried that too. Didn't work.
Hey, I tried it all; soap, detergent, alcohol, Shout, SnW,
cold water/drip dry, hot water/drip dry, TSP, coin-op car
wash, hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, prayer, lemon juice,
oxy-whatever, voo-doo, lye, vinegar, scientology, etc,
etc.... none of it worked! I maybe shoulda' tried lighter
fluid, which is naptha, which is basically what dry
cleaners use. But, who the heck still has a can of Ronson
lighter fluid laying around the house? No, wait
...OHMYGOD!... geez, I do still have a can. (time to do
some serious garage cleaning 🙂

Botom line: dry cleaning worked.

Glad to hear it. And yes we always have lighter fluid around
the house. For that and many other purposes. It is cheap and
maybe a little safer than the dry cleaning fluids normally
used. It removes adhesive left over from tape, the roofing
cement I'm working with, some types of marker inks etc etc.
It's very cheap and a can of it lasts a long time.
