Self-tanner stain should use vinegar and water, spray mix on and wait then scrub.

Other stains, any Oxy spray worls well. So does Spray & Wash laundry stain remover.

A good powdered Oxy that you can make a paste up and scrub in is best for most anything. You can't find Oxy anywhere though but can at hardware stores for sure.

Vinegar and water is always good for most stains if gotten to immediately.

A product with no petroleum oil at all but has an citrus or orange base is excellent.

I've consulted with my parents on this one, so you're rating THEM too ;)


Less Abrasive, & guaranteed to not take out color of the carpet (spot test first though!:
-OxyClean
-GooGone


VERY STRONG. I've used both of these to get dried, blood-red nail polish out of expensive grey carpeting, with great success. I don't know how they'll react with dark-colored carpet, though, so test a small area, like, in your closet or along a baseboard first :)
-OOPS! remover
-Goof Off The Ultimate Remover.

Both of these work grat on virtually everything. Please, though, OPEN ALL THE WINDOWS! Stuff's incredibly strong. We didn't do that... and we couldn't go in the house for a few hours and had to get takeout.


You can buy any of these at a hardware/home improvement store. Many you can even find at stores like Target or WalMart. Check in the automotive depertment and ask someone there for stain remover stuff- people use GooGone a lot to get bird crap off their car)
