FAQs
Q. Does white wine stain?
A. Yes, white wine can leave a stain, though it may not be obvious until later. However, you can remove the stain if you pretreat it using the same techniques for red wine.
Q. Are there any tips for removing old wine stains?
A. Any stain that’s been sitting around for a while will likely need multiple treatments to get it out completely. And don’t forget the club soda pretreatment step — it still helps, even on older stains.
Q. How do you get wine smell out of carpet?
A. If you’ve removed a wine stain, but the carpet still smells, you may have missed some of the stain. You should be able to remove the rest of the stain if you go over the entire area with a steam cleaner.
Some wine may have also absorbed into the carpet pad under the carpet. Pull up the carpet where the spill was. You may need to replace part of a stained carpet pad because foam carpet pads can’t be cleaned. You can also spray the underside of the carpet with Clorox® Urine Remover to eliminate the smell. Make sure the underside of the carpet dries completely before retacking it down.
