The stain book said to use glycerin to remove tree sap from fabric. Can I go to the market and buy glycerin?


I realize that glycerin is an ingredient in many soaps, but the book specified glycerin.

Any chemists or stain-prone people out there with advice?

You can also get it in many drugstores. Common item in most of them.

as you said, glycerin is in many soaps. my school uses it a lot for labs, and its basically harmless. i didn't know that it was able to take out stains, but if you need it check for scientific supply stores. fairly chea p too, and you can get it in clear or colored.
