First time for everything

I have a serious question for once. What can I use to get grease (bearing) off my pants. I fear I've ruined 2 good pairs of jeans working on this piece of crap....

Sometimes dish washing liquid like Dawn will do it.

 

[kingvjack]

Thats easy enough.... Do I soak them in the sink or what?

Fels Naptha soap.

Fels Naptha soap.

It is awesome for removing nasty stains.

Funny story.

When our oldest son was about 5, I made him a Dracula costume for Halloween. Put all the cool makeup on him. We didn't know how to slick back his hair. So Otter used Vaseline. Bad choice. It doesn't just wash out. It took us a week of washing of his with everything known to man...cheap shampoos, Dawn, laundry detergent, etc. Finally, his kindergaten teacher suggested Fels Naptha. Did the trick. I often wonder why we never though of using plain old hair gel...I know Dippity Do was around at that time.

Dippity Do

My mom used to put my hair in pin curls with that stuff when I was a kid.

I still cringe when a see a big old jar full of that blue-green stuff.

I can't even say that. Where do you get it? My husband's always greasy.

I can almost remember the smell of it.

I've gotten it from Wal-Mart and seen it in most grocery stores. You have to look for it - it's usually way up on the top shelf.

Please don't spoil my appetite this close to lunch.

I usually hit the stains with Dawn on a toothbrush and then throw a little more Dawn into the washing machine along with Tide. But this Feels Nappy stuff sounds better than my method.

What, Otter did have any of this around? "A little dab will do ya"

Me too. I think I'll take a look at the menu again.

I think I have already decided, unless there is a special that sounds even better.

I think I have decided on this

I'm looking at the Grilled Tuna Nicoise Salad and a cup of the Lobster Bisque. Mmmm...
