How to destroy an oil stain

So last night you decided to cook something in oil/grease, or maybe you had some deliciously greasy pizza from the joint down the street... You're taste buds were joyful, but your shirt not so much?

Oil /grease stains can make a good shirt look terrible, and not even in a cool, grungy kind of way. BUT fear not fellow punk, even though they are tricky, oil stains do come out.

Here's what you need.... corn starch, and iron, and an ironing board[or any flat heat resistant surface should so]

Step one: Dont panic, and DO NOT wash that shirt.


Step two: Lay the clothing flat stain facing up.

Step 3: Sprinkle some corn starch onto the stain
I POURED rather than sprinkled... you wont need that much.
Step 4: While your iron is heating up, turn the shirt inside out.

Step 5: Iron until the stain starts to disappear. Be careful not to burn the fabric.

Step 6: Hand wash the shirt in cool water and let it air dry. If the stain is still visible you may have to repeat steps 1-6.

Step 7: Enjoy your shirt until you spill something else on it you messy messy punk.
