We all know washing machines are designed to remove everyday stains, but anything coated in a flammable residue should never go in there. This includes stains such as cooking oil, gasoline, alcohol, motor oil, or anything which could catch fire. You don’t want these fluids in your washing machine because they’re a fire hazard

PLEASE EXPLAIN how you create a fire hazard inside a washing machine when it's tumbling a couple of gallons of water around with the "flammable stain".

I propose the theory that NONE of the product stains will catch fire in the enclosed water inundated environment of any washing machine. I base this on the premise that the water in the washing machine will be well below the flashpoint of any of the contaminants and that the water splashing around will exclude oxygen and therefore act to effectively extinguish any chance of a fire developing.
