How to remove ring around the collar even after dry cleaning?
Many of my white shirts have ring around the collar even after taking them to my dry cleaner to have them laundered. My dry cleaner is excellent but they can't seem to get the ring/stain out still.
Any other suggestions?

Here's what I learned in boot camp. 1 cup water, 1/4 cup detergent, 1/4 cup bleach. Scrub with a scrub brush. It will come out. Just make sure you wash the shirts when your done. If you don't, the bleach will eat holes in your shirts.
Ring around the collar is caused by body oils mixed with dirt. To remove you need to break up the oils. I have used a thin paste of Wisk , Clorox and water poured on to collar and rubbed together then wash as usual with just Wisk. After this process works, use the Wisk as a pre-treater, wash as usual, and have the cleaners do a press only if you hate ironing.
