LilNiteRidrhood,

1) Darn.... I thought this might be a professional's response.  I'll walk on this one.  I can't afford to replace it.

2) Not familiar with these two products you've mentioned, but I'llcheck them out.  I was at a IICRC course, and the instructor askedus to bring carpet samples with stains to share and practisewith.  One guy brought the ph indicator soaked sample.  Usinga volitile solvent first didn't do anything, but putting on anythingelse changed the colour of the stain dramatically.  Quite funny tosee the look on the student's face when the stain all of a suddenturned dark blue for a moment.

Thanks for responding.  OH.... and my previous question about themixing of acid rinse/anti-bac/protector:  thanks for your answerthere too... after the course I understood your answer much better.

Later!

1)  If its real sisal , I'd pass. Tried to be a hero too often and it just ain't worth it. Spend so much time trying to put the colour back in or makeing the spot uniform with the rest.

2) Dyeco dye remover pen or CR3.

Got a couple o' challenges for y'all.  First one's a real life situation, the second is  just kinda fun.  Really.

1) How would you get red wine stains out of sissel?  Winerytasting room floor... sissel carpet about two years old... using theinterior decorator's face to agitate your favorate solution is a'given' and highly reccomended.

2) Spill some ph indicator fluid (used to test ph in fish tanks) on anold  carpet sample (no fair using something that still has it'sprotection on it!).  Let it sit a couple of days.  Pretendthat you don't know what it is & do your normal testing on thestain. Or if you don't test(silly goose!), then just use your normal product.  How would youget it out? Pretend the customer is watching what you do....

Any one with a challenge?
