Permatex 22340 Fast Orange Grease X Mechanic's Laundry Detergent, 40 fl. oz.

Don’t know why it took me so long to realize they made detergent for mechanics clothes, but since purchasing it has been a game changer for laundering my husbands work clothes. Cleans very well and 1 bottle goes a long way if you follow the instructions. If you feel you need more than the recommended single capful for a load, it’s obviously not going to last you that long and tip: you should probably be soaking the clothes in dish soap to remove grease and oils before moving to the washer. Just saying. My husband is sensitive to overpowering smells and he’s also a little picky about smells in general. This does not bother him a bit, as the scent is not overpowering after the clothes have been washed and dried. Really grateful to have found this product. A regular purchase in our household.

My husband is a mechanic and gets into everything! His work clothes used to smell so bad—mostly of diesel—that we gave him his own washing machine just to keep them from tainting our regular laundry. I started adding this to his wash, and I couldn't be happier with the results!It immediately cuts through the diesel odor, removes grease, and his clothes come out looking and smelling truly clean every time. Because it’s a bit pricey for the size, I use it more as an additive alongside our regular detergent—but even then, it still works wonders!

Works good, but didn't take all the stains out of my polyester high vis coat as I had hoped it would , but definitely did a better job than other products I've used.... it did however take care of the oder from the grease /oil in my work hoodie and other stinky clothing I washed, which I'm happy about that, as I didn't have to wash it more than once!I will have to try and use it directly on the stain before washing it next time to see if it makes a difference? , but I'm pleased with the results so far, it's not something I plan on using if I don't need to because it's a little pricy for the size!, but nice to have for greasy clothing and hard to remove oders!

My husband works oilfield, he does well tests, sometimes he gets deep raw crude stains.( very thick and stinky) Tide doesn't touch it, oxi clean soaking for days, doesn't touch it.Besides the stained pants shirts; theres the smell on the clothes and in my washer.I've tried commercial detergents and stain release for oil based stains, etc.Nothing has worked until this little bottle. My washer smells clean too. That is a first!!Being honest here too.....Some stains do require soaking and maybe even spot scrubbing with a brush.On articles with heavier stains, I will spot scrub and then soak in washer for a couple hours. Then another final wash. With other detergents, there was never enough soaking,scrubbing or washing that removed stain and smell. If spot scrubbing on occasion and washing maybe twice is what it takes, then I will continue to buy Fast Orange, because that is all it takes!!Some reviews noted how small the bottle was.No joke on that!! It is small, but mighty!!Now, if theyd make a bigger bottle, it would be super greatly appreciated!!

My husband is in the metal fabrication field and somedays he comes home covered in metal dust and/or some kind of fuel or hydrolic fluid *queue the facepalm*Regular detergent, even the HD Tide doesn't even phase his messes.... so I found this, marketed for mechanics and the oils and fluids they work with, so I thought I'd try it.It works well for the metal dust and the grease that follows, but it's not the best for hydrolic fluid. Takes care of gasoline and diesel fuel pretty good, although the smell of those lingers a bit after its washed, but it's better than anything else I've found.My biggest gripe - hence the 3 stars - is the seller, or whoever was in charge of getting it delivered. I ran out and needed some in a pinch and it's always been available with prime delivery, but the last two times I've ordered it, the delivery was canceled and I wasn't given a reason why, so I had to find it elsewhere (which cost me more, but it wasn't bad - worth the trade for the Amazon frustration)It's definitely a great detergent, does its job and smells orange-ish, but it'll continue getting it elsewhere.

Works excellent! When I’m out I will buy more

I’m a miner. This stuff gets out everything except falk grease. Nothing gets out falk grease but it’s great for all other greases. Only thing I use on my work clothes other than zep orange degreaser. Smells like a citrus farm.

I work line service at an airport so I constantly get jet fuel on me from the hoses slightly dripping. This will take the smell out BUT I use it with other stuff too. I'll use my standard powder detergent and the oxi clean odor blaster powder. Just half and half of the powders and a capful of this and it takes the smells out. Also keeps my washer from making the next couple loads smell like fuel too which was a problem with standard detergents.
