          I’m a certified slob and can testify that this stain removal technique is highly effective. It also works on leather.

            I once managed to remove an oil stain with baby powder (it was all I had at the time being), but cornstarch or baking soda works better.

              Anything to draw the oil out of the fabric really.

              Had a big red wine scare over the weekend. Got some splash back on my white Pronto Anniversary tee. Mixed some dawn with peroxide, equal parts and it was worked like a charm.

                It also works on Goo Gone. Got some caulk on a new pair of RGTs and the goo gone worked wonders, then the corn starch removed the goo gone.

                  Goo Gone is legit. I like the double tiered method as well. Nicely done.

                    @Matt that’s all thanks to the mommy blogs. Anytime I have a concern about fabric, I head to the mommy blogs lol.

                        Has anyone mentioned just dunking the whole pair of jeans into a bucket of olive oil yet? Sometimes ya gotta fight fire with fire. Complete the circle.

                            Carry some crusty bread with you and just dab it on your pants when you need a snack.

                              I was at Sam’s Club last week buying bulk mayonnaise like all good midwesterners when I dropped a couple jars of bulk pesto (yes it’s a thing) and one exploded on my jeans and new kicks. It was a whole scene man. Anyway I used the corn starch on the jeans no problem and have been trying use it on the shoes too. Little tougher to get out of suede but I think it’s working

                                I applaud your correct priorities in buying both bulk mayo and pesto. Go forth and slather!

                                    I would have cried like one of my kids right in the middle of the store.
