    I've had good results with Resolve Max for all sorts of impossible stains.

    I find that rubbing alcohol works great for removing bike grease. I've used it on car seats (dab on, then rub with a clean rag) after accidentally brushing them with my chain ring, and the seats look as good as new.

    I have used shampoo or dishwashing detergent on grease marks and both have worked on cotton.

    Linen is pretty tough stuff, so you should be able to give it all you've got.
    But if you can't get back to the white, there's always dye.
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    The blue Dawn dishwashing detergent has removed more grease from clothing, bike bags, etc, it works like magic!

    Simple Green

    I got chain grease on a yellow bike jacket, and Simple Green got it out, so now I'm a fan.
