Removing pomegranate stains
This is probably somewhat off-topic, but I've been searching through
other boards and sites and can't find a solution to this problem. I cut through a pomegranate earlier today, and the juice squirted all over the place and onto my pretty white kitchen curtains. Does anyone here know how to get rid of pomegranate stains? I'm beginning to think there may not be an effective method of stain removal because I read that pomegrante juice is often used to dye clothes! |

Removing pomegranate stains
sorry that is so funny, my wife recently got into pomegranates, and i
am noticing purple stains all around our house. There are even stains on our light switches. I swear I am living with a 5 year old. Not sure what to recommend with your curtains. |

Removing pomegranate stains
There is a powder in a plastic pail sold at flea markets (sorry, don't
know the name) but you see them demoing it on carpet to get stains out. I use it and it does wonders. You put the powder (white) in a small glass with warm water added. You stir it up with an old toothbrush and them use the foam to rub on the stain. Best product I've used. chemqueries wrote: This is probably somewhat off-topic, but I've been searching through other boards and sites and can't find a solution to this problem.

Hi Carpenter, Thanks so much for your help. I will look for that pet stain remover. It's definitely worth a try. |

Hi Joey, Thanks for your help. You're not referring to OxyBrite, are you? I think I saw a big plastic container of that at Sam's Club. |

This is sold at flea markets, could be the same but not sure. The plastic tub says SUPREME on the front and contains Dupont teflon. Hope this helps. J |

Removing pomegranate stains
sunshine246 had written this in response to
http://www.thestuccocompany.com/main...ins-53835-.htm : You don't need enzyme stain removers: Rinse stain well, even if it has dried or is old, with cold water until it stops fading. Then rub in baking soda really well and rinse with cold water until stain has turned a light blue. Then boil water (you might need alot) and pour boiling water in a stream from a couple feet above the fabric directly onto the stain so the water passes through and off the fabric. Stain should disapear completely. Works for me on whites and wont take set colours out of your clothes. |
