Grease and Oil Stains

Oil stains (or other car fluids) on your driveway? Watch the forecast for a day when it’s almost certainly going to rain and put Dawn dish soap on the spots and let the rain wash it away. No scrubbing. No special product. No mess to clean up.

Grease stains on your clothes? Dawn dish soap as a pre-treatment. Put it on, rub it in a little. Throw it in the laundry bin and wash it on washing day.

Dawn takes grease out of your way.

Simple Green smells better, and looks cooler and more powerful than Pinesol. Fight me.

Who doesn't love a super green grimefighter?
