    anyone know how to get a grease stain out of a ski jacket?

    So i have a pretty good sized grease stain from grease that dripped down from a chairlift shiv wheel (sp?).

    I've tried washing it a few times with that spray and wash spray stick.....no luck. Any other ideas?

    Murphy's oil soap and a good brush should take it right out
    why make ten turns when you only need to make NONE!

    Scissors! Works every time!

    I've also had some success using Dawn dishwashing detergent, though and you don't get that same pesky drafty feeling that the other solution lends itself too.

    soak it in Biz overnight - if it's still not gone, keep soaking.

    scam

    Go to the ski area customer service and ask to have it cleaned or replaced because it was the ski areas fault that their wheels on the chairlift did it. I had to get a check for a patron at a ski area when I worked CS. It was a Bogner fag bag.

    While Baconzoo's idea is brilliant...

    ...I'd try Simple Green. That stuff works wonders!
