Amazing. I had tried two different store brand stain removers (one generic, one Tide) on a vintage dress, but neither worked. I just now tried the salt water with a manicure brush and it's gone. I have no idea what the stain was or how long it had been there.

Does anyone here remember a product called Renuzit? It was a strong smelling liquid stain remover from the 1950s (and probably earlier).
My Mom used a lot of this stuff when I was a kid to remove the many stains I was always creating.
It was basically dry-cleaning fluid in a can. It is gone, they stopped distribution.
A favorite of mine, especially for greasy stains, is corn starch. It takes black gunky sewing machine grease out of white satin! Brush it on , brush it off, until the stain is out. Apparently good for blood on white lace too, or so says the murder mystery story I got the idea from.
Im looking for stain fighters for glass.
I have a couple of glass baking sheets that have some oil stain/discoloration ON the glass, not in it.
Id rather find something to dissolve the oil, because a soak in water isnt working. I could scratch them off, but I dont wanna scratch up the glass.
Any ideas people?
Thanks

baking soda will help scrub the stain off but is not anywhere near abrasive enough to scratch glass.
I would mix it with the Borax Miss Sis mentioned.....works wonders...I use that combo to scrub sinks and dishes and so forth.
They say ignorance is bliss, but it really just means you failed to learn.
Thanks
When the grease first got ton there, originally did the elbow grease & Baking Soda stint for a time, then had to take a nap.
I just unearthed a box of borax from my forgotten encaustic supplies, so Ill give that a try. Sweet!
