Some of my clothes, not surprisingly, have dark spots from used oil
and carbon. I am not sure if it is the oil itself, or the carbon works
as a dye, but they do NOT clean up with regular clothes detergent. I
want to clean them out properly.

Would anyone have a suggestion as to what to do with these dark stains.

Thanks

Goop (smells good) or Permatex (smells awful) hand cleaner will take
care of the oil. Make sure the clothes are dry first and don't wet
them for a half-hour or so after rubbing it in.

'Don't know about the carbon. That's just rubbed into the fabric. If
washing in regular detergent won't do it, I don't know what will --
unless it comes out with the oil.
