Dawn dishwashing detergent works extremely well for getting grease out of
clothes, hair, skin, etc.  Rumor has it that they use it to clean the
feathers of birds contaminated by oil spills.  Don't know if this is true or
BS.  However, I have never found anything that removes that nauseating smell
of transmission fluid!  I threw away my last transmission changing shirt, it
smelled too gross!!
