Which stain is it? The product and the steps

• Red wine

  Red wine has dyes that set quickly: the sooner you act and the less you rub, the better it comes out.

• Coffee and tea

  Coffee and tea contain tannins; with milk or sugar they add protein and fat. An enzymatic stain remover deals with both.

• Pet urine and odour

  Urine soaks into the foam and the smell comes back with humidity. Only enzymatic products break down the source; fragrances just mask it.

• Grease and oil

  Food grease, creams and the dark mark on sofa arms and backrests need a product that dissolves fat before water goes on.

• Blood

  Blood is protein: hot water coagulates it and binds it to the fibre. Cold water and an enzymatic stain remover solve most stains.

• Ballpoint ink

  Inks spread easily: work with the product on the cloth, dabbing, never directly on the fabric.

• Make-up

  Foundation and lipstick are fat with pigment: dissolve the fat first, then lift the pigment.

• Mould and damp smell

  Mould comes from damp: you clean it and treat the smell, but if the piece stays somewhere damp it comes back.

Before any stain: check the label (W, WS, S or X) and test the product on a hidden spot.
