I accidentally dried a load of clothes with a tube of chapstick. I was so horrified when I saw all of the stains on our clothes as I began to fold them. There were dark grease spots splattered across many of our shirts and pants. I tried multiple products, including "ZOUT" my favorite, but none of them worked much to my frustration.
But, then I asked a friend of mine, and she suggested using Goo Gone. At this point I was game to try anything because it looked like a loss as far as I was concerned. I squirted it on every stain and let it sit for 5-10 minutes (found out it's best to do this in a well ventilated area because the smell is quite strong!) Then, I washed the clothes with detergent just like I normally would.
Waalaah! Clean clothes again!!! Every spot came out!! There is a faint smell left over on the clothes but it either evaporates out or is gone after multiple washings.
I have had my bottle of Goo Gone for years and years to get stickers off things but I never once tried it on clothes. Now I know!
Have you ever had a dryer nightmare?
May all your laundry days be blessed!

Hi Kathy!
I did not know that could be used on clothes! Thanks for sharing. I could totally use this tip for sure! :)
Thanks for the sweet comment on my little quilt. Yes, I did machine quilt it. I know you can do it too! It is not perfect by any means....but it is so rewarding to say I did it myself. :)
Have a wonderful day! :)
Hugs, Shann
