How do you get olive oil stains out before and after washing?

I have two olive oil stains...one i caught before i put it into the wash and one after. Any tips for either one?How do you get olive oil stains out before and after washing?
Put baking soda on the spot and rub in with your finger, cover with a paper towel and put something heavy on it for a while. Turn the item inside out and do it again to the other side of the stain. After a few applications and being pressed down by something heavy like a dictionary, the baking soda will absorb the oil.How do you get olive oil stains out before and after washing?
Use one scoop of Bravo stain remover with every load of laundry. It will remove grease, coffee, tea, and blood stains.





If you have a stubborn stain, make a paste of Bravo and water and rub it in before you do the wash.





There is a more expensive product, which I think is called Oxy-Clean. I stopped using it because it costs two to four times as much.





My experience with Tide has not been good. Rubbing it into clothes tends to remove the dye as well as the stain, leaving a whitish spot.





You can use a paste of Bravo to remove carpet and upholstery stains, too.
Rub some detergent on it, the soap binds with the oil and will pull it out.
I love Tide with Bleach Alternative....I pour it directly onto the stain, full strength,prior to washing............usually works. Sometimes though, nothing works,,,hope this helps and very sorry if it doesn't...If your stuff is ruined , it is a good excuse to shop !!!!!
