I would like to say thanks for all the cleaning tips from Kim and Aggie. They are so good. I do have a problem with a fine wool rug in beige, yes a cup of tea leaving a bright tan stain. I have tried all the normal things like spray chemical foam removers but cant get it out. Very expensive chinese rug looks terrible. Help. Hi! Babe
HiBabe, K & A's tip for removing tea or coffee stains from a carpet is to mix a teaspoon of washing-up liquid with a cup of warm water and sponge on. Blot, then mix 1 cup of clear vinegar with 2 cups of warm water and dab again, blot away and then dab with clean water. Mind you, that's for a recent spillage when you should blot away all excess liquid first. Whether it will work after using chemical foam removers I don't know, but it's worth a try.
