Can you use spray and wash to get oil off of cloths?

I got oil from cooking on my shirt (cotton shirt) and I wanna know if I can use Spray%26amp;Wash to get the oil off.Can you use spray and wash to get oil off of cloths?
I once did an experiment to see what common product dissolved oil the best.





I took 4 cubes of solid butter. I dropped each cube into a small glass of water.





I added vinegar to one, baking soda to another, salt to a third, and dish washing liquid to the fourth.





The winner? Dish washing liquid. That cube was completely dissolve within a half an hour. The other products didn't touch their cubes.





So...rub dish washing liquid generously into the oily areas. (Any brand works.) Allow to sit for a half an hour. Then launder as usual.Can you use spray and wash to get oil off of cloths?
The Spray %26amp; Wash should work just fine. Spray the spots and let the product work on there for at least an hour before washing. Use warm water to help dissolve the oil. Cold water can't get grease or oil stains out because it doesn't liquefy the stain so it can be removed.





If the Spray %26amp; Wash doesn't get it all the first time, give it a second treatment and that should do it. Other options are Dawn dish washing liquid, Simple Green (great for motor oil and axle grease).
You can but if it doesn't do the job get some Lestoil.You can also try any degreaser you have around the house, the kinds mechanics wash their hands with like GoJo or Simple Green.

a good sudsy wash that has ammonia and baking soda added, those 2 are very good for breaking up grease and oil stains, also try glycerine and eucalyptus
I would us dawn dish soap on it and when you wash it add some oxi-clean to the water. It should come out with out any problem
sure can and dial soap also works.
If it doesn't work , rewash with a color safe bleach or oxiclean
WD-40 then regular dish soap, breaks down all kinds of greasy messes
