  • On clothing I’d use Napisan, but on carpet I’m not sure.


  • I agree with lots of you here that the olf fashioned Sard or Sunlight soap block are the best for stain removal. I also use it a lot for stains in clothes.


  • stainmaster have some information on their website about stain removal for carpets


  • Sard or napisan are really good to use!


  • sard wonder soap


  • great hints for removing stains thanks


  • For all stains on my carpet I use warm water and small amount of liquid dishwasher and massage into stain and remove as much as possible with a cloth/rag then I place my steam mop over the stain and gently rub (without mop cloth cover). Takes patience but definitely works.


  • The good old sards wonder soap always does the trick


  • Hi try rubbing a little bit of straight eucylptus, let sit for abit then sponge with cool water . Dry with paper towel adding pressure to draw it up. Hope this helps.


  • Sard wonder soap is great for a variety of stains, both on clothing & carpets.


  • I would make a solution of bi carb,water and a tiny drop of bleach,elbow grease,either let dry in airway or gently hairdry on low.


  • Great question! From what I can see the how to clean stuff website is awesome — thank you for the answers!


  • Maybe try napsan on it


  • Use wool wash, it helps get the stain out


  • I found a web-site quite a while ago that has been an enormous help to me when I’m not sure how to clean different items, and remove all sorts of stains. I dropped a spoonful of tomato-based pasta sauce on some light-brown carpet, and I used the following link to remove the stain. The link is for removing tomato stains from clothing material, but it also worked on carpet. Good luck – I hope it also works for you.

  • Try Listerine, I use it to get stain out of carpet.


  • Add ¼ teaspoon mild detergent or carpet shampoo to 1 liter of cold water. Stir the solution in a bowl to mix thoroughly. Moisten a clean cloth liberally with the cleaning solution, and simply lay the cloth over the stain. Then Massage the cloth and then dry.


  • Sunlight removes tomato based stains from clothing, but difficult to do with carpet. I think Shannon Lush has recommended a UV light pen which works the same as sunlight. I’m not sure where you get them, but I think there is a toy one that works.
