Hi all!
Does anyone use Hydrogen Peroxide on red wine stains? I popped in to John Kelly's at Restormate the other day and its what he uses and he swears by it when used and dried with a hair dryer immediately.

I am getting some off the guy who cuts my hair and he says he is not allowed to sell it as its what terrorists use to blow up people but can spare me a drop!

Any thoughts?
Cheers
John

Yep its a good stain remover as it is also good for odour removal. You can buy it at 6% from boots. Becarful  using it and practice first before trying it out at customers houses.
Too stronger concentration can turn wool to a brown mush when over heated.

I would have thought that H/P would be used when other attempts have failed !!!


I often find a straightforward h/w/e can do the trick ,provinding its a recent spill.

Two lots of 'H' to one lot of 'O', stir well.

Mmm, Mike knows something we don't, he wouldn't have asked that one otherwise 

[Mike Halliday]

believe me..... I know nothing, I'm still working out the h20

[PaulKing]

yep best stuff out there try mixing it with amonia for those really bad stains

[colin fitch]

Take your 1 litre of h/p 12% volume
and add to it 1 litre of that special chemical [H20] .

You now have 2 litres of useable h/p at 6% volume

Yep peroxide on red wine works a treat. Try to extract first as a lot will lift, then the peroxide/hair dryer. I normally buy mine from a hair dressing stockists and pay just a few quid for 18% vol. I then mix with distilled water purchased from the same place (at the correct rate).

I end up with gallons but its so much cheaper than buying silly little bottles from suppliers

How long do you leave it on and do you extract with water, i will give it a go. Does it work on tea & coffee?

We  use 'Tea and Cofee stain remover' and 'Red wine stain remover'  from Altec.

They do what it says on the bottle, easy really.

Well ill get some today as well as red rx. Try the red rx first with extraction then the HP sauce!

[Ian Gourlay]

Used it today to remove stains Tea and Coffee remover  will not shift.

I am using some amonia I got from Hombase but it does not seam to heat it up like the one I got from Alltec, are there diffrent strengths of amonia
