    Thanks Nancy, I wonder if it takes Vaseline out of elastic. I'm afraid to start this story...it's a binoculars harness.

          Like Rosemary I have used cold H20 and salt. In the past I have also pre-soaked with BIZ and cold H20.

            Sue, at my house the children refer to them as "dork straps"! (But they do it with a smile on their faces... )

            As far as the Vaseline goes, there's a product called Goop which is pretty good at getting greasy stuff out. It comes in a paste-like form in a tube. DH uses it to get the grease off his hands after repairing bicycles, but I raid it frequently to treat greasy stains on fabric.

              Another product that removes many stains is Citrus Orange hand cleaner from NAPA Auto Parts....
              I pre-treat grease spots and all manner of stuff with it , let set a bit then wash as usual . Works
              wonders.

                Marilyn,
                We use that here too. My husband and son mechanic a lot therefore their jeans and shirts get real dirty and greasy.
                They use it for their hands I use it right in the wash machine with the dirty clothes-great stuff.

                    Connie, this made me laugh. Yep, dorky, but they sure work, especially when one has a good case of warbler neck. I'm way past caring about looking like a dork. Comfort is the name of my game

                    Your product won for this time around, because it's sold at Amazon, but I got the tub of it. Besides being suggested for grease and stains, it's also recommended for poison ivy of all things, because it breaks down oils. Who woulda thunk?

                    Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!
