Remove Common Laundry Stains

By Mary Marlowe Leverette, About.com Guide

Chocolate is a combination stain - a bit of an oil stain, a bit of a dye stain. Begin by rubbing heavy-duty liquid detergent or a paste of powdered detergent and water into the stain. Wash garment as usual with an all-fabric bleach (OxiClean, Clorox 2, Country Save Bleach, Purex 2 Color Safe Bleach) and detergent. Check for stain before drying. If it is still present, repeat steps BEFORE drying.
