How do you get motor oil out of a coat?

Unfortunately it will never all come out.How do you get motor oil out of a coat?
I was going to suggest Dawn and the Goop.


But you can also use Hair Spray wet area and spray and let sit over night and wash
Get yourself some Goop or M30 waterless hand cleaner ( I like Goop best ). You can find it either in the auto section at stores like WalMart or at the dollar store. It is used by mechanics to get the grease off their hands and it is safe for fabrics, too. Take a glob and work it into the stain. Let it sit for 15-20 mins and launder as usual. You might see a shadow of the stain when you pull it out of the washer but it should disappear as it dries. Please do not put the coat in the dryer until you are sure the stain is gone. Heat will set the stain. You might need a repeat application depending on the extent of the stain.


LesToil ( available in laundry section ) is also good for cutting and removing greasy stains.
You can try using a can of coca cola. I used it on my husbands work jeans(he is a mechanic) and it takes it out of them.
Dawn dish washing liquid is a good grease cutter. Try rubbing some of that into the stain and wash and see what happens. Lestoil is also a good grease cutter, do the same, rub some into the stain and wash.
