In the past I have used peanut butter to get gum off and it worked, it should probably work the same on silly putty.

I already washed it 5 times - it got lighter but it's still RED on grey shabbos pants.

Question: Do you have stain removal information for Silly Putty on fabric?

Answer: We offer stain removal suggestions for both Crayola and Silly Putty products. You can find this information by going to Stain Removal.

Specifically, the suggestion for removing Silly Putty from fabric is as follows:

How to remove Silly Putty® & Clay from fabric:

Materials

Dull knife or metal spoon, Liquid dish soap, WD-40® (car part lubricant, Rubbing alcohol, Cotton ball, Soft cloth or sponge

Procedure

Scrape off excess Silly Putty® or clay with a dull-edge knife or metal spoon. Spray with WD-40 and let stand a few minutes. Scrape excess Silly Putty® or clay with dull-edge knife or metal spoon. Respray with WD-40 and wipe off stain with cotton balls. If any stain remains, saturate a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol, blot the stain and rinse. Wipe any remaining residue or remaining stain with a damp sponge or cloth moistened with liquid dish soap.

Please bear in mind, all the stain removal suggestions we offer have been tested in our laboratory, but we are unable to guarantee the results. We recommend you test our suggestion in an inconspicuous area first.

Good Luck

I've tried the recommendations but not had much luck removing it. Of course, I was dealing with carpets and fleece.

Won't WD-40 ruin the pants - they're his best Shabbos pants. He could get away I guess with the reddish stain, but if the wd-40 takes color off the pants, then I can toss it.
Anyone tried WD-40 on clothing? If yes wich color? And of course did it help.
