I agree 9 years to good effect!!!  i have been using prochems stuff for just the last 4 months since i started and that does not always work, particularly poor results on wool berber recently managed to fade it a lot but not take it out, a may try Alltecs stuff as alternative

No 2 tea and coffee stains are the same, different temps when spilt, different tea bags, coffee amounts of sugar milk, has the customer had a go themselves etc

We did stain removal for insurers for years and had a 75% success rate. If you can achieve that or better then you are doing well.

You can't get em all out!

Hi Guys,

Another problem with decaf is that it often contains artificial colourings which are much harder to remove than the natural ingredients.

Sodium met or hydrogen peroxide for me.

Cheers
