    Hi Anu,

    My MIL spilled ghee on her saree when lighting deepam. I did not wash it or tried dipping it in water, but took the saree to the dry wash shop in my locality. Those people said the same - no guarantee of stain removal - and yes it is true the results depend on the reaction of the spill with the fabric. But with my MIL's saree after dry wash the result is satisfactory and stains were removed. You might want to try a professional laundry service who would do a thorough job and if lucky you could have the stains removed.

    But by far I have not tried any stain removal techniques at home.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Laxmi, Good suggestion, yes in most of the cases trying it with professional laundry service do help. I have personally tried and removed color dye stain on a white cloth.
