Dye stains

Red dye stain is one of the worst stains to ever have
on a carpet. This stain is often permanent. There are
many types of spot removers used to attempt to take
out a red stain. Heat transfer products give the best
results but nothing is 100%. The best thing to do
when you get a red stain is to use a wet dry vac to
pull up any material in the rug, then use paper
towels to blot up the remaining liquid. Then I would
use a solution of a teaspoon of dish soap and 1 quart
of water. Apply the soap to the towel and work the
stain from the outside to the center. If the color is
not coming out stop and call a professional. You
never want to make the stain larger or permanent by
dumping a massive amount of solutions into the
carpeting.
