I have motor oil stains on my embroidery patch. I work on cars at the local NTB. Please help me remove this oil stain on my name patch. Here are some pics.

Try Janie Stick which you can get thru Amazon. Professional product made specifically for oil and grease stains.

Also you need to resize your pics a bit smaller. They're really big :D

I'm sure that the stick shadeladie recommended will work, but I'm too lazy to go buy something if I don't have to, so I'd try pretreating the stains with a dishwashing detergent labled as being able to cut grease. No putting this in the dryer until the stain has gone, or the heat will probably set the stains permanently.
