I spilled a whole bottle of Sobe drink on the wheat interior...ive been tryna use oxyclean for the last half hour and i see no results...are there any good carpet stain removers that would get rid of a huge red blotch on a wheat colored carpet...very unattractive :-(

Gday

either carpet shampoo or steam clean... Did you get to it right away or did you wait for it to dry?

gnarf

i got to it right away...as of now its sitting in the garage...wet...what's steam clean...dont they do that at car washes????

Steam clean is those vaccumes that have hot water and cleaning solution that sprays on the area with a vaccum attached. You gould use a spray bottle with hot water and stain remover and just use a wet dry vac if you have one. Not sure if they have steam cleaners at car washes or not. Good luck!

i wouldn't use steam or water. this stuff usually promotes mold and mildew. this is what i use in the car, house, shoes, anything that stains. it works wonders.



btw...anyone use oxyclean and have had it form crystals on what was cleaned.

Ditto on the Turtle Wax Carpet Cleaner. Love the stuff!

In fact, it's not a bad idea to hit the carpet and mats once very six months or so. It does a great job of taking the musty smell out of the mats.

Try this stuff call Wine Away. http://wineaway.com/

I've used it to get red wine out of white carpet, white shirts, etc, and Newcastle beer spilled on a couch.

BevMo usually has it. Here's where to buy:

If this stuff can't get it out you are hosed. Or see if a detailer in your area has some dry cleaning chemicals that could do the trick.

^uhm...this happened 6 months ago. If the OP hasnt gotten it out, i dont think anything will get it off now. =P

ty for your concern..nonetheless...its just a light colored red/white outlined stain..looks somewhat menopausal..but not to bad..ty for the help guys

This is why I would never get a light colored interior .

gnarf

very true..i have learned my lesson...but i recall one time i was driving home with an overly nice drunk lady from a club...she licked my side bolsters thinking they were "tasty and edible"....not sure if that would work with the black interior...id rate her an 18 in blackjack

One time my dad was in his new Acura TL, white tan interior, he put his coffee up on the dash when he got into the car. Forgot about it, pulled out of the driveway, and im sure you can guess what happend next. Coffee all over the place. It happens. Im sure that was a lot worse then your situation. You live and you learn.
