Default dirt/grease on good clothes

Got some black dirt/grease off the car, on to my good trousers. *The usual
trick which solves it, is to work in some Swarfega hand cleaner; and then
detergent and warm water washes it away.

My problem is that being in a hurry i did not work the Swarfega in deep
enough or well enough, and then went on to wash it.

So its now 'set' into the trousers. *Grateful for any further suggestions.


Sometimes I spray wd40, rub it in, then spray with greased lightning,
work it in, throw in wash with more soap.
