Title: Cough mixture on wool mix
Post by: garyfindlay on December 08, 2010, 07:30:10 pm
Custy has phoned to say she has spilt covornia cough mixture on light 80/20 wool mix. Has dabbed it with soda water, but I can`t look at it until tomorrow. What spotter could be used on it?

If it's like Calpol usually it's sugar/protein based so with a general spoter and rinse it should work, if not it may be a colour change so then you are going down the reducer route.

You need to try using this

or Master Stain Remover from alltec works well on Calpol type stains. I have found though the older the stain the less chance of total recovery.  :-X

Steve, I only ever bought a 5 litre bottle of Mpower to try out. Waste of money IMO.

I use mainly chemspec's enzall or powerburst. With citrus boost or chemspec enegizer as a booster when needed.

New Degreaser Plus froM Chemspec looks interesting.

Acid rinse, booster, degreaser, spotter.
