Wine Stains

#1 Post by PlacentiaSoccerMom » Sat Feb 09, 2008 12:53 am

I knocked a glass of red wine off my night stand tonight. It splattered all over the carpet. I put some undiluted Oxi Clean powder on it and left it on for an hour, vacuumed it up and the stains are completely gone

I have a stain that I made disappear the same way.

Four days later, it was back.

I keep playing the hide and seek game with that darn stain.

I heard to use white wine to remove red wine. I just got rid of all carpeting on the ground floor because I got tired of scrubbing it all the *&^%$ time. Now if the kids wouldn't drink chocolate milk when they felt ill, I could stop scrubbing regurgitated chocolate milk out of the upstairs hall carpet...

I hope that my splatter doesn't come back in four days.

I hope so as well.

Mine was the grease variety - that might make a difference.

Darn contract workers and their dirty boots.

I always heard that club soda was the way to go to remove wine stains. Never had the chance to try it and have never had a wine stain on carpet.
I hope the Oxi Clean works, even if Billy Mays is the most annoying person on TV. 8)
