The Case of the “Invisible” Stain.
See next page for
Food or cooking oils on your
Stain Removal Guide.
synthetic garments may cause stains
which are virtually invisible and
which you may not notice as you
put your clothes into the washer.
If these stains are not completely
removed in the wash, the oily spots
may pick up dirt from the wash
water. Then they will become very
visible and you may think they were
caused by the wash cycle itself.
Once these spots become visible,
how can you remove them?

Rub in undiluted liquid detergent
and let stand 30 minutes.
