Title: Food Colouring on Carpet
Post by: Bernard Hibbs on February 03, 2006, 12:59:51 pm

I need to clean a carpet with food colouring on it.  Is there anyway to shift it?  I haven't tried anything yet.

does that mean that you can't get it out?  People must run into this.

Berhard,

Food colourings are very difficult to remove especially curry  , which is pretty impossible .

A lot depends on the fibre type , PP good chance , wool little chance.

Some like red wine can be removed , I have had some success with this.

Try to be a bit more specific and you may find someone has a suggestion.

Cheers

Doug

Thanks.  this is actually Food Colour - the sort you buy to add colour to your baking etc.  I guess it probably won't come out, but you never know.
