Oh Sh*t HELP!!

[SarahH]

I have just knocked a can of Grape fanta on my inlaws couch... only a tiny bit went on it, but it is a beige couch and now has a purple stain on it (think ribena! )

I have sponged it, rubbed salt on it but it is still there..... any suggestions preferably in the next couple of hours before they get back from work!

Try lemon juice hun, I got a grape stain out of a cream carpet this way

Just sit where you spilt it to cover it up and never move .

Vanish is what I always use for stains.

Oh my!!


Deny all knowledge

Sorry im not much help xx

 

[SarahH]

Oooooh, it comes off...cover is in the wash!!

sorry no idea - I use vanish but its not something carried around every day.
you know how to get rid of a red wine stain you use white wine- wonder if that would apply in case of juice (white wine)?
or how about some bicarb soda with a little warm water?
failing that, turn the cushion over and just like Ifc_sarah said, deny all knowledge

good luck!

I once spilt mulled wine on my friends sheepskin rug that had just that day come back from the dry cleaners!!! she was in shower at teh time and I was frantically dabbing with all sorts - manage to get it out with just warm water but I was pooing myself - admitted to her after and said I'd pay for more dry cleaning but she was fine with it.

Vanish upholstery cleaner or an enzyme cleaner (I prefer enzyme cleaners). Umm salt.... surely that will just set the stain? Salt is used to 'fix' colour when you're dying clothes

Salt soaks up the spill when still wet then you hoover it up... usually works brill for me
