Question Help, I got gasoline on my new coat!

I was pumping gas yesterday and when I put the pump back, I noticed a little gas leaking out and there was some on the ground. When I got in the car, the smell was overwhelming so I knew some gas had gotten on my clothes. Turns out, it was on the bottom of my new long black dress coat! I read online that you should wash it (luckily it's machine washable) and then rinse it in vinegar. I did that twice last night and you can still smell the gas.

The next thing I've heard is to put the coat in a bag with baking soda for a couple of days. I've even read to wash it with a can of Coke! Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Re: Help, I got gasoline on my new coat!

I got gasoline on my jeans one time, it also stunk pretty bad! I just tossed them in the washer after letting them sit outside in the garage for a day or 2 to air out.

The smell was gone after I washed them.
