Request: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet Post by Sally_Admin (276) | (12/02/2008) Profile | Contact I am needing help in getting red kool-aid and soda out of my carpet I have tried hydrogen peroxide and its not helping. Can someone help me please? Peeweebubbamom from West Jordan, UT Answers: RE: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet Shaving cream or folex (in the carpet cleaner section) is safe for most carpets, and folex has a 100% money back guarantee! Don't be a consumer without it! They both really work great! Linda made a great point: don't let them have it in the living room. Heck, regular juice is easier to clean up, and can be mixed with soda water for "soda" (05/24/2006) By camo_angels RE: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet I have used Koolaid to dye materials...may not come out. If you have to replace the carpet, talk to your insurance agent to see if this is covered My Husband brke a bottle of red wine and we had to replace the carpet and it was coivered by our homeowners (05/25/2006) By Diana RE: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet Awsome cleaner. I used to buy it at dollar stores. Can't say that I have bought it lately, and I no longer have white counters or carpet. When I did that stuff took it right out. It worked like it was bleach, but harmed nothing that you sprayed it on. I was like magic on red, kool-aid, juice, fruit, jello, wine... any thing red. I used to buy it by the gallon. I think I used it on my husbands shirts also? can't remember, if it did not work for clothing I also have the answer for that. Whites can be dabed with bleach & rinsed but what about colors? You spread the shirt over a big bowl or pan tie it around or tape it so it stays taught if you can. Boil a pan of water, then pour it from about 12"s above the shirt onto the shirt. It should take the stain out the 1st time, other wise boil a second pan & repeat. Like magic no more red spot on your shirt.

We even used them in the shampooer. (07/28/2006) RE: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet Am forever spilling Kool Aid on the carpet. What works here is a combo of baking soda and vinegar. Let them bubble for several minutes then blot. If the stain is still there re-apply once or twice.

(12/20/2007) By smilingfaces88 RE: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet I tried the Oxy Clean too and it didn't work. I found on another site they say to use dawn, and water. Put the solution on the stain, then put a white towel over it and an iron. It should come out then.

(02/18/2008) By Tonia RE: Kool-aid Stains on Carpet I recently searched for how to get red koolaid out of carpet and found myself on a site that gave the most wonderful advice. Mind you, I have had these stains for over a year and a half. So I quickly ran to the hardware store and bought the only thing I needed which was about $3. The stains were magically gone. I wish I could hug the person who gave the advice. 1) Mix equal parts of ammonia and water and drench your stained area. 2) Take a white rag and soak it in plain water. 3) Place the rag dripping with water on top of your stain. 4) Take a hot iron and place on top of your wet rag for 20-40 seconds. You may take off and put on for increments of 10 seconds if you would like. You will see the red stain transfer to the white rag. What you need: ammonia, white rags, water, and an iron (11/29/2008) By Forever grateful!

Even though I have got some of them out, my carpet is sticky. Any suggestions on how to not only get out the stain, but also get out the stickiness? Hope R from Oklahoma Answers: Oxy Clean 10/05/2004 "Oxy Clean" is wonderful at getting out stains. If the stain is gone the stickiness will be gone. I had a red drink stain on my couch for about 4 yrs. I decided one day to try the Oxy Clean on it. It came out immediately. I've used it many times on my carpets after the Granddaughters have left. I've got my daughter and daughter in law using it now. We've even used it to pretreat the carpet in the car. I haven't found anything yet that it didn't work on. This is the first product that I found worked like it showed on TV. By Aria (Guest Post) RE: Sticky Carpet From Spilt Kool-Aid 10/05/2004 Spot Shot! It comes in an orange/blue can! It's amazing! Not real cheap. Averages from $4.50-$7. We use it on our carpet for everything. Amazing stuff! By SimplySimple Spot Shot Didn't Work for ME 10/06/2004 I found that Spot Shot mentioned above took the color out of my carpet. Do a test first where it won't show! How about your kids eating and drinking only at the kitchen or dining room table? It will save a lot of grief in the long run. By Linda (Guest Post) Shout 10/07/2004 I use Shout for stains on my carpet. Just spray and then take a rag to it. By AJM1271 Shaving Cream 12/04/2004 Shaving cream.
