I’ve used OxiClean powder and Totally Awesome and either one will get just about any damn stain out of clothes.

Zoat works well for most stuff. For set in stains, saturate the stain with ammonia, squirt it with oxy clean stain remover, let it set for a few hours and wash with warm water. I recently got some 30% ammonia and using the method above cleaned oil stains that had been set in for years in some old blue jeans, shorts and shirts. One shirt was a really nice, expensive dress shirt had a big oil blotch on the front and I didn't have the heart to throw away. Tried all kinds of stuff over the past year that lightened it by about 60% but it was still unwearable. The ammonia + oxyclean spray got it out 100%, you can't even tell it was ever there looking at it up close.

I use Oxy Clean and Dawn together. Warm water on the clothes. They rub the mixture in good and let it sit overnight.

I always thought try washing in cold water in whatever treatment you choose to avoid in settling in the garment

every good solvent has basically been banned by EPA because of toxicity

that being said it depends on how chemically polarized the substance of stain is so there is not a single answer.

like dissolves like

Do yourself a favor and buy some tide. Anytime you get anything that might stain on your clothes, just put tide directly in it. Wait, wash it right away, it doesn’t matter, it will probably come out. Says it right on the package. Everything but grease. For grease use some brake parts cleaner. You will never stain anything again. You’re welcome.
