Hi people, not really sure where to post this.

Set the bike up on the turbo yesterday and unfortunately the other halfs washing was near to it.

Turns out one garment (typically a brand new birthday present) has got bike chain grease all over it (whoops)

Anyone got any hints or tips for how I can rectify this.... ie - what can I use to wash the stain out.

Cheers,

Dru.

    Put some Oxiclean in with the normal powder and bung it in the washing machine (according to my wife)
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos

    cool

    without going into things I don't really know about - can this be used on most fabrics?

    Yep - just mix it with the normal powder in the drawer (according to my wife :wink: )
