Best Answer

Bitumen or tar is an organic substance that repels water. The stain should therefore first be softened in an organic solvent (petrol or gasoline will do this but this should be done out of doors and away from any flame source) and as much of the bitumen as possible removed. Once this is done a hand cleaning substance (such as 'swarfiga') can be applied and worked in to the stain then the area rinsed in warm water. After this a good wash in a washing machine with normal household detergent should bring the stain out. Alternatively you could take the shirt to a reputable dry cleaners and ask them to remove the stain.

How do you remove oil stain from shirt if the stain didn't remove after wash?

To remove oil stains you should pretreat the stain with a pretreatment spray or by rubbing it with liquid laundry detergent. Sometimes the heat of the dryer can set a stain. This means that if the stain was not removed after you washed it, and the shirt has dried, it may be stuck there.

Removing stains depends on the type of stain. I encourage you to search for instructions on removing the specific type of stain, but the following instructions should do for an unknown stain. Start by blotting up or scrapping off as much of the stain as possible. Then rinse the stain in cool water and pretreat it. Wash the shirt on a cool water cycle.
