Sunflower oil stain on tshirt (wash again or buy a new one?)?

Is it likely to come off somehow? I don't know if its oil or pineapple juice, but it wouldnt come off just with water when I tried, so maybe oil.


It isn't a huge awful stain, but it is there, looks a bit like shadow but I keep looking at it now.





I don't know if I should buy a new one, it wasn't expensive anyway and I do love the top, so always handy to have a spare I guess.





Or should I wash it in the machine or use something special to clean it?

Pineapple juice is a minor stain at best and it should come out with a regular washing. Since it didn't come out, you will need to treat it as a grease stain. Dishwashing liquid works well on grease, oil and fat based stains. Dawn dish liquid is one of the best grease removers you can buy. Apply a little directly on the stain and allow to penetrate all the fibers. Let sit for a while, fifteen to twenty minutes, then wash in the warmest water that the item can handle with a good liquid laundry detergent.





Here are several excellent source for information on common laundry stains and how to handle them:
