Stain Removal Secrets: How to Clean Anything!

Dealing with stains can be really frustrating. However, if you know a few basis about how to remove stains, you can clean just about anything.

Tips for Removing Common Stains:

Coffee - Every coffee drinker experiences a spill from time to time. Coffee stains don’t have to become permanent, assuming that you act quickly and decisively to get rid of them as soon as they occur. As soon as a coffee spill occurs, you should rinse the fabric thoroughly with cold water to prevent it from setting. You should apply a stain  liquid detergent to the area immediately, and then follow with an additional cold water rinse after about five minutes.

Ink - If you accidentally write on your favorite machine washable shirt, don’t panic. You can remove the stain quickly and easily. Simply spray hair spray on the affected area and allow to soak for a few minutes. Rinse under cold water, and the stain will disappear before your eyes!

Tomato Sauce - If you enjoy cooking with or eating tomato sauce, you’re likely to end up with globs of it on your clothing from time to time. Whenever this happens, immediately remove the excess sauce from your garment, and then soak the affected spot in cold water for about thirty minutes. Once the spot has soaked for a while, gently rub liquid detergent into the area. Allow it to sit for about 15 minutes, then wash in cold water.

Wine - There’s no reason to cry over spilled wine. If you spill red wine on your carpet, tablecloth, or clothing, your first instinct might be to panic. However, there is hope for removing red wine. Try sprinkling salt on the affected area and letting it sit for a few minutes. Rinse with cold water, and it’s very likely that the stain will disappear. If not, try a commercial cleaning product designed to remove red wine stains.
