Stain Removal Tips

Old Stain

Clothing
Spray stained area with Wine Away. Let set for 3-5 minutes, follow with a laundry pre-wash and launder as usual.

Tip : Before drying check to see if stain has completely vanished. If not, you may need to follow the same procedure again.

Carpet/Upholstery
Spray Wine Away on the stain, wait and blot! Let treated area dry. Follow with a damp rag to remove any excess.

Trick : The best way to blot a stain is to take your thumb and place it in a rag or paper towel and push finger into stain and turn clockwise. Try not to "rub" the stain as you may cause fraying of fibers.
