Cleaning a new sail...

Hi,
I just got a replacement sail for my older Sunfish (Seabreeze) and was thoroughly dismayed to find that there are a couple of small areas where there are now grass stains (my fault) on it. My question then is whether anyone knows of a decent cleaning agent for new sails that will remove (hopefully) the stains and not affect the pigment in the cloth. I was wondering about Oxy-Clean and other agents similar to it... any ideas?

Thanks in advance...

the last time i asked my shop this they said mild dishwashing detergent or laundry detergent and to HAND wash it
 
Anybody know if McLube type products help to keep dirt and stains off of sails? I would think it may help...kind of like scotch guard for sails. That could help justify it's cost.
