5 Ways to Get E-bike Grease Out of Clothes

Oct 01, 2021

If you have ever ridden a regular bike, then you must have come across grease. And, that is on your clothes. This dirt creates one of the most stubborn forms of stains that can ruin a good piece of clothes and even your entire day. No matter if that is your work clothes, sports clothes, or some old cleaning garments, one of the most common questions related to the bike dirt is how to get bike grease out of the cloth.

No matter how careful you are, it is inevitable that you will get some grease on your clothes. It instantly leaves a dirty mark on the place where it has touched the fabric, and you cannot fix it just by using some water and soap. However, although you might think that the grease would be the end of life for your garment that is not the case. So, how can you get bicycle grease out of the clothes?

First of all, all the bikes need grease. Grease is what helps the bike's moving part to perform great with as little friction as possible. It keeps them running smoothly, without damaging them. Additionally, it prevents heat from happening, which might come from the friction from the metal parts. E-bikes are different from regular bikes, but they still need grease for their functioning. Grease here is used for gears, for the motor, brakes, etc. grease helps all these and other parts to run smoothly, providing you with an enjoyable and safe riding experience. Because of that, grease is a lubricant that leaves hard stained on clothes and other fabrics.

However, knowing how to get the bicycle grease out of the clothes will save you headaches. Here are several ways that you can try out:

Dishwashing Liquid

The first and every efficient way to get the grease of the E-bike out from the clothes is to go with the dishwashing liquid. It can securely and thoroughly remove the bike grease from different fabrics, such as synthetic and cotton materials. To achieve the best results, follow these steps:

  • Start by applying talcum or cornflower directly onto the stain. Let it be like that for about 5 minutes. Get a soft brush and start rubbing it off the fabric. It will scrub the grease.
  • Still, there is a stain. Now, on the remaining stain, apply dishwashing fluid. Let it soak into the fabric for several minutes.
  • After that, wash the clothes regularly. If the stain is not completely removed, repeat the same process two or three times.

Be sure to be very gentle with all the brushing and wiping so that you don’t damage the garment.

Baking Soda

Baking soda is known as a very efficient stain remover in the household. Its scientific name is sodium bicarbonate. It is a natural, non-toxic mineral, with great stain-removing properties. It is available in the supermarkets and it is also a great way to try and remove the bike grease from your clothes. What makes it so powerful and useful in removing stains is that it sucks out the dirt. It will work great when applied over the grease, as it will absorb all the odor and color from the grease. The best way to use it for removing grease stains on the clothes is to prepare a mix of baking soda and vegetable-based soap. Apply this mixture on the stain and gently brush the grease off. After that, rinse it off with warm water and let it air-dry.

Biological Laundry Detergent

Another great method of removing bike grease from clothes is using biological laundry detergent. It has proven very efficient for synthetic clothes, no matter if the stain is fresh or dry. For efficiently removing the stains, there are the stains that need to be followed:

  • Apply a small amount of the biological washing detergent powder on the grease stain. Slowly and gently, rub it in. Let it work its magic for about 15 minutes.
  • When the time has passed, rinse the stain under running cold water, which will wash off the grease.
  • Let the garment dry off naturally.

This process is not suggested for delicate garments, since they might require different care and approach.

Shampoo or Bar soap

Just like the dishwashing liquid, shampoo or bar soap can be very helpful in removing grease stains. What makes the shampoo and the bar soap great is that they carry special anti-grease agents. Efficiently removing the bike grease from the garment requires applying the shampoo first, and let it soak in the fabric and stand like that for a couple of minutes. Another way that the shampoo can be used is to soak the clothes in water or ammonia. After that, the soap bar or the shampoo should be rubbed into the stain, until it starts to foam. The next step is to soak the greased clothes in a mixture of water and vinegar and wipe the grease off with an old toothbrush. Vinegar here will remove the alkalinity of the soap, so it is best to go stay away from soap in the water-vinegar mixture. Wash the garment and let it dry off naturally.

Lemon and vinegar

Other useful ingredients that you can find in your home and will efficiently remove the bike grease are lemon and vinegar. Both of them have acidic benefits and properties that help to lighten dark stains. For the bike grease, mix vinegar or lemon juice with vegetable-based soap and apply it one the stain.

With these 5 easy ways, you will easily remove the grease bike stains. The right ingredients and the right process will deliver positive results, and your garments will be wearable again.
