Hi Diana! If you're talking about removing butter from fabric (clothes), I use Dawn dishwashing liquid and squirt it on the stain, rub it in and toss it in the washer to wash as usual. You may have to repeat the step a time or 2 before the butter is completely gone.

The cleaning product Lestoil will get out anything greasy (oil, grease, makeup, butter, salad dressing). Just apply it directly to the stain and let it soak through the fabric, then launder as usual. Do not let it sit for very long (not much more than a minute or two) on something that is brightly colored, as it will fade the color, but will not harm it as long as you launder it quickly. Do not overdo it, it just takes a little, just make sure you completely cover the stain (sometimes you might have to do an extra rinse if you use a lot).

I also use dawn dish soap to remove butter and grease stains. I wet a cloth in very hot water and dab some dawn on and rub on the stain until it breaks down.

I put dish liquid directly on such stains. YOu may want to rub it in a little or let it set for awhile. Then throw it in the washer with other items.

My sister taught me to clean table cloths this way. Simply dab dish liquid on food stains while the cloth is still on the table. You can see them better than if you take it off the table first.

Good luck!

You could also try De Sol It spray. I've had good luck with that
