If the stain is fresh, sprinkle with talcum powder and they are expected to absorb the grease, then rub vigorously.

If after doing this there are still residues, or stain and is a little dry, rub with a cloth dipped in ammonia or benzene (which is used in the burners), leaving the garment soaked with liquid soap and rinse well.



Carpets and rugs
Rub the stain with a cloth soaked in benzene or turpentine. If the carpet is wool, with a small brush will scrub the area well with warm water, special wool soap and a splash of ammonia should remove, rub with a cloth soaked in trichlorethylene or carbon tetrachloride.

Car Grease
First of all remove the excess with a knife edge going carefully over the stain, then impregnate with butter until soft fat, and washed with soap and water.

If the garment is leather, soften the fat with petroleum jelly for a few minutes and then rub with a dry cloth.
