Red Wine

I must start off by telling you that everything in this Blog is a suggestion and if it fails I cannot be held accountable for these suggestions failing to remove the stain or any damage resulting in you trying to remove the stain(s). They work and I have tried them myself. Oh and I should add, no I was not paid for writing this blog at all. This is my free time spent on putting the word out there. Because simply I have no life and because some people like to sue another for stupid reasons I have to leave you this little warning. This is a helpful hand, take it and respect that it is offered in good will and the best of luck for you. Please feel free to leave comments or ideas yourself.

Red Wine:

• If this is a fresh stain try to get up as much of the liquid as possible using a clean white cloth, white paper towel or our trusty Wet/Dry Vac

Even when the stain is older and has dried

• Open a bottle of White Wine

• Apply the White wine to the area. This recreated the initial conditions of when it first occurred and it will make it easier to remove the stain.

• Extract the liquids by blotting or the Wet/Dry Vac

• Repeat by applying the White Wine to the area

• Extract the liquids by blotting or the Wet/Dry Vac

Hopefully you have a store purchased carpet cleaning product on hand and can now use this on the area to help remove the stain to help get more up. Fallow there instructions.

• Rinse the area using cold water to make sure you get the remaining liquids up.

• Dry as quickly as possible.

Remember you want to dry it as quickly as possible because you do not want if it is there the stain that maybe deep down from wicking up to the surfaces. Think Candle wick here. The stain comes back by using the fibers like a candle wick.

There are no quick fixes when it comes to really getting in there to removing any stain. Keep in mind a job done right is a job well done. Anything else truly is not worth doing and you will regret it when the stain keeps returning or you have damaged the carpet by rubbing or scrubbing the carpet so it wears faster and it has to be replaced sooner. Using home made products to use on your carpet to gives you the control of the chemicals used and often is the better choice for the health of your family and pets.
