Fake tan stains
« on: August 20, 2004, 11:22:47 pm »
Any one got a solution for fake tan stains?

Brown marks on bedroom and dressing room  wool carpets caused by tanning spray.

I guess this is caused by the dye, which maybe like hair dye.

If it's designed to 'dye' skin you can be sure it will dye carpet.
I had this once and tried everything, but failed to lighten the colour one iota.

John,

You got it in one!

Wool, human hair and skin are all based on the same protein - keratin - and the wool does not even have the benefit of oil to resist the dye.
