    Blue dawn and a dab of OXY for the laundry always works for me. Apply with an old toothbrush and allow to set a few minutes...rinse and allow to dry. Any one know why only blue dawn works to remove stains and not the green??

    I have found that making a paste with Blue Dawn dish washing liquid, peroxide and baking soda will take out anything.
    I usually spray a little water on the soiled area, add the Blue dawn and rub in a little, spray a little peroxide on it, then sprinkle baking soda and spray again with peroxide and then rub in with an old tooth brush. I often let it set for an hour before washing. I just wash with the regular wash and it is usually gone....blood, grease/oil, permanent ink, even whatever stains my DH brings home from the barn. It even takes out stains from previously washed items. Good luck.

    I use a bar of Fels Naptha soap on stains. If I spill on a shirt, before I put it in the hamper, I dampen it and rub the bar on it. Hang it on the edge of the hamper to dry and when I wash it it is gone. It even works if I have missed a spot before putting it in the wash.

    I have used Oxi Clean along with Arm and Hammer on stains, but I found "Pink Solution" works the best on fabrics,
    I used it on my husbands white shoes, and he suggested I try it on a stain on his jacket, we didn't know what the stain was caused from, and this product removed the stains totally. I purchased it from Amazon.
