DH has to use eye medication every half hour that is basically mineral oil and petroleum jelly. Medication has stained dark-colored pillowcases. I have tried Dawn, Pine-Sol, degreasers. Have not been able to remove stains. Any suggestions?

Febreze Spot Remover with Oxy Clean - this stuff is bottled magic. Got a stain out of the carpet that was there when we bought the house 5 years ago that nothing else would get rid of!

I guess I should mention that it is not specifically for clothes or linens, but I use it on that stuff and never have problems :)

The .99 store has a stain remover in a green squeeze bottle with a red heart on the label called Soilove. Smells like ammonia but works Very well!! Good luck, I am really surprised the Dawn didn't work.

If you've already put them in the dryer, the stains are baked in and won't come out now. Cehck TJ Maxx for some deals on new ones.

I have heard that either corn starch or baby powder rubbed in remove oil stains-But if you ever need to remove gum from material or hair -warm vinegar works wonders lol
