Small canopy stain.

Question

I take full responsibility and sadly feel the result of my decision:( but I had my rig sitting in my office and a coworker walked in and his shoe had motor oil on the bottom. Left a good wet oil mark on the tail of the canopy and one of the brake lines. 
 

what’s good to use? What’s safe? What’s the right move to take care of the issue? I dont want to go ahead and do something if it could cause harm to the canopy or even discolor the material. So any input is much appreciated!!

Start by dabbing oil off with several clean rags or paper towels.

Ask your local rigger to test the strength the same way as we used to tensile test PD reserves.

If the stain still bugs you, ask you local rigger to cut out the stained portion and sew on a new piece of fabric.
