I’m honestly at a loss as to the origin of these incessant grease stains, but it’s almost as if they’ve waged a war against every shirt in my husband’s wardrobe! Numerous readers have proposed that the culprits could be fabric softener or dryer sheets, but considering that I don’t use those, that theory doesn’t apply to us. If you’re facing a similar issue, it might be worth scrutinizing.

Despite my diligent attempts, nothing seemed to get rid of these stains, and we ended up discarding countless of his polo shirts only to buy new ones. The situation had become so exasperating that I was nearly pulling my hair out every laundry day!

A friend of my mother suggested using Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam as a solution to our grease stain problem. Primarily designed to clean dishes by soaking up grease, she mentioned that it worked wonders on laundry as well. Intrigued and desperate, my mom gave it a shot and confirmed its effectiveness. Taking their word, I decided to give it a go as well. Initially, I purchased it from Target a couple of times, but its availability was somewhat unpredictable. Therefore, I’ve decided to switch to Amazon to purchase the refill bottles in the future.

The unique feature of this soap is its foamy consistency upon pumping, and a small dollop goes quite a distance. Simply apply a small amount directly onto each grease stain.

Rub the dish soap into the fabric using your fingers, ensuring the whole stained region is coated.
