h100vw 0 Posted January 25, 2006 Eucalyptus oil gets oil and grease out a treat. My missus gets through loads on my clothes. Smells good too. Downside: Koalas try to hump your leg :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted January 25, 2006 Washing-up liquid is good at breaking down oil... I've found washing-machine liquid much better, preferably the bio ones, great for cleaning oil off your hands too as it dizzolves everything even in the lines in your skin/under nails, downside is it strips all the natural oils out of your skin too! It's nearly as bad on tarmac drives as petrol though :oops: Still, the 'colour' ones shouldn't take the colour out of your carpet :) David. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
