Whether at a festive party or celebrating Christmas in your home, you can be sure that wine will be spilt on carpets or tablecloths!

Whilst quality professi0nal carpet cleaning is recommended to remove most stubborn stains safely, if you act quickly enough, you have a chance of effective and complete removal.

Red wine is one of the most common stains at this time of year.  Here is how to remove any trace: (if you act quickly!)

Removing a Fresh Stain

Wet stains are much easier to remove.

You will need:

White wine

Baking Powder

Clean Cloths

1. Begin by blotting (don’t scrub!) the stain with a clean cloth to remove as much of the stain as possible.

2. Then add some white wine to a different clean cloth and continue blotting the stain.

3. Make a thick paste of baking powder and water and spread a layer over the remaining stain – Leave for 5 mins.

4. Simply hoover up the baking powder and the stain will have completely disappeared!
