"If you have a spill you can erase the red wine from carpet by chasing the spill with white wine. Simply fill a glass of white wine and empty it directly onto the stain. A glass of white wine will make the red wine to disappear from your carpets completely.
When white wine is no available, you can make a solution of water and dish soap and place it in a spray bottle. Spray a small amount onto the red wine stain but make sure that you do not soak the area of the spill. You just want to release enough of the soapy mixture to get the stain removed. Using a new clean towel, gently daub at the spill until you have completely deleted the stain.
Another great solution that you can make at home is a mixture of dish soap and hydrogen peroxide. Apply this new mix to the stains carpet. Use only a small mixture of this solution because it will begin to lose its power to clean very quickly"
blot at it with paper towel don't rub it just pushes the stain further in :y

update - I am informed that white wine has been applied first and now the heavies are going in with the bicarb. I sort of expressed agreement to this strategy - back to the garage I think.
-
Mind you.....its all very well cleaning the carpet......as i did last week...
Holly had a little accident (ok rather great big one!) stomach upset during the night and it didnt come outa her front end......i got the carpet cleaner on it......i may have been a bit too generous with the carpet cleaner chemical......but now that bit of the carpet looks cleaner than the rest of the carpet.....i think its bleached it a tad ::) ;D

;)If you REALLY want to live dangerously: don`t forget to 'tut' and roll your eyes when the stain is still visible tomorrow! ;D

We leave for Cornwall at 6.30am - not sure I want to check the carpet - she definitely will and will want to talk about it on the way down - thank God it was not me. Where are those Metallica cds??

It went quiet so just sneaked a view- there is white powder everywhere - if anyone calls round they will think it is a heroine party gone wrong. I have a bad feeling about this. "Hard Hat Area"
