"Hi, I'm Sue in West Jordan. Today, we're trying to get ring around the collar out of your shirts. Usually if you take it, you want to have a good surface that you can lay the collar on, and once you lay the shirt down on the hard surface, you take the degreasing solution, and spread over, around the dirty spot, then you take an old toothbrush, and you kind of rub it in really good, back and forth a couple of times. After you rub it in, go ahead and fill your washer up with some cold water, and some laundry detergent, about maybe halfway, and load your shirts into the washer, and then have it agitate just enough to get the shirts wet, and then stop the washing machine, let the clothes sit overnight, and that will have time for the degreaser solution to work. Then, in the morning when you wake up, go ahead, turn the washer back on, let it run through the cycle, and check to see if the stain has been removed."
