Shake a bottle of water around and spray on the spot. Let it sit for a day, then blot the area with a paper towel. Choose the right type of degreaser for your stain. [substeps] Tap water is typically best, but look online for a degreaser that contains acetic acid as an ingredient. [substeps] For strong stains, use 1 cup vinegar mixed with 4 cups water. Let the vinegar solution sit on the stain for a few minutes before wiping. Before you start, make sure to dampen a soft cloth or sponge and release any excess grease. Repeat the degreaser process with a different type of product.
