I managed to get a fried steak in my lap the other night (don't ask) and now i can't get the stain off my new jeans
luckily the jeans are quite dark but even so, the stain is still noticable and i would much rather it wasn't there. any suggestions?

Is it oil that has stained?? If so, then pour a little bit of boiling water on it, get an old toothbrush and use a bit of dishwashing liquid and scrub then rinse with more boiling water. Should get any oil out. If its not an oil stain - then I dunno

the other thing I have done before for Oil stains was pour Baby powder all over the stain. Leave it for a day and wash....does the trick for me.

I got all my oil stains out from silky Indian clothing like that.

i think it probably is an oil stain, i'm wondering if i've left maybe left it too late to get it out.

roksana, does the baby powder trick work if the stain isn't fresh?

Yap it does.

I had a $1000 indian outfit that I wore at a wedding, Zaara droped food over it...I wiped it off but didnt realise that there was stain till I wanted to wear that outfit again (few months later). I quickly put powder on it...left it for 2 days and then just hand washed that area (The whole outfit is 5kg's.....)And the stain was gone.

I do hope that it works for you Ella. It always does for me. Let me know how you go.

Dylon fabric Care "stain Solve" pre wash - GREAT STUFF!!! It gets out oil, grease, makeup, grass, chocolate, even BIRO our of anything! I had a pen leak all over my new jeans, and this stuff got the stain out after a month.

Highly recommend it...
