I'd say it is more likely that a typical TWW male would know that before a typical TWW female.

Acid
Sprite/7-up/Sierra Mist
Milk
Vodka
Nail Polish Remover
Petroleum Jelly
Liquid Whiteout/White Spray Paint


I don't know if any of these work (though obviously the liquid whiteout would at least cover it up), I'm just throwing out random ideas.

Regardless, TRY ALL OF THEM UNTIL SOMETHING WORKS.

Quote :
"Cover the entire grease spot with liquid dish detergent. Colourless detergent is preferred. If using coloured detergent, be sure to dilute it or the detergent may stain the clothing.
Gently work detergent into grease. You will instantly see it dissolve. The newer dish detergents have special properties that allow them to absorb grease.
Rinse the area with white vinegar to remove all of the detergent.
Wash as usual.
For really stubborn grease stains, keep repeating steps 1-3. Even grease from a white polo shirt marked with grease from a boat engine can be removed by this method.
Enjoy your clean garment!

worked as advertised (didn't really "dissolve" instantly, but some scrubbing and it came right out)
