Rowdy touchdown celebrations are bound to lead to beer dribbles, Bloody Mary mishaps, and soda spills. Follow these steps and you can clean up in time for the next huddle.
FOR CLOTHING SPILLS
Gather These Tools:
Stain Solution, All-Purpose Bleach Alternative, Stain Brush
STEP 1:
Treat It
Apply Stain Solution directly to the affected area. Then sprinkle All-Purpose Bleach Alternative on the Stain Solution to create a powerful paste. Work the solution into the fabric using your finger or the Stain Brush.
STEP 2:
Work It with Water
For added cleaning power, pour boiling water from a kettle onto the affected area. (Pour from a safe height so the water won’t splash on you.) The force of the pouring water helps to do the work. You can also use hot water from a faucet set to its highest water pressure output.
STEP 3:
Soak It!
Soak the item in a basin filled with hot water and 1 capful of All-Purpose Bleach Alternative for up to 30 minutes. Reapply or repeat as needed.
STEP 4:
Give It a Wash
Wash according to our instructions with The Laundress detergent.
FOR CARPET & UPHOLSTERY SPILLS
Gather These Tools:
Lint-Free Cleaning Cloth, Wash & Stain Bar, Scented Vinegar, Spray Bottle, All-Purpose Bleach Alternative
STEP 1:
Blot It
Using a Lint-Free Cleaning Cloth, soak up as much of the spill as possible by blotting gently.
STEP 2:
Spray It
Mix 1 cup Scented Vinegar with 1 cup of lukewarm water in a spray bottle. Spray the affected area generously and let sit for 10-15 minutes. This step will remove odors commonly left behind by beverage spills. Be sure to follow this step with a good rinse using hot water and a cloth to soak up the remaining vinegar.
STEP 3:
Lather It
Wet a Wash & Stain Bar with warm water and gently work into a lather. Apply directly to the affected area by rubbing gently to remove the stain. Once the stain is lifted, wet a Lint-Free Cleaning Cloth in warm water and dampen the area to remove the soap suds completely. Dry the area with a clean portion of the Lint-Free Cleaning Cloth until completely dry to avoid water marks later on.
STEP 4:
Sprinkle It
Optionally, to further freshen carpet, generously sprinkle All-Purpose Cleaning Concentrate on the area and let sit for 10-15 minutes before vacuuming up the granules.
