Best Way To Remove Red Wine Stains

Is there any possible way to remove red wine stains from your carpet or clothing? If you thought red wine spills were impossible to clean up, think again.

Actually, there are a couple of simple things you can do to remove red wine stains but you have to act quick. That's because you don't want the stain to have a chance to set into your carpet or your clothes.

First, soak up as much of the red wine spill as possible with a clean, white cloth. The easiest way to remove red wine stains is blot a small amount of white wine on the stain. White wine will neutralize red wine and it will lift the color out of your carpet or clothing much easier.

Be careful to just lightly blot and not rub the stain because you don't want to force the wine stain into the carpet or clothing fibers any more.

Once you have most of the spill blotted up, use a carpet shampoo or a clothing stain remover and clean the carpet or clothing as you normally would.

You can also use club soda to remove red wine stains. Club soda really works well for any kind of spills on clothing or carpet. Pour a small amount of club soda directly on red wine spills and blot it up with a clean, white cloth. The carbonation helps to lift the stain from the carpet fibers.

You can also try pouring some salt on the spill to remove red wine stains. Salt acts as a buffer to keep the stain from setting.

Accidents happen, and most of the time red wine spills are considered a complete loss to carpet or clothing. But if you use these simple tips, you may find it's actually pretty easy to remove red wine stains.
