Well, you blew my idea :lol I was going to recommend hairspray. Did you use Aqua Net hairspray? It's suppose to be the best. If you already dried the uniform forget it. Nothing will get it out.

Hi! Two products that I have had good luck with are stain removal product called Zout, usually found in Uniform Shops and some grocery store. The other is a spray called Awesome. Hope that helps

Hi,

Try Oxy-Clean, That stuff can get just about any thing out!

Yes try Oxi-clean or stain devils.

Or the old fashioned way (my grandparents owned a dry cleaners for 50 years)

Dish soap and a scrub brush under cold water

on a hard surface, seriously works better than laundry soap. Even gets ink out. But if you turn your fabric over and it has already gone through, or you washed it in hot water and/or dried it in the heat dryer, you may have big problems getting it out.

Oh and baby wipes those are good too.

Denise,

I have had good results with alcohol. Oxy Clean also works well. Good luck!
