    Wine Away, Mostenbockers Red stain remover both will remove it almost instantly and they cost less than $5. You can find them in the laundry aisle in most discount stores. Don’t freak out when you first apply it as it will turn the stain blue, just keep spraying until it completely disappears. You can also make a paste of Borax and water, work it into the stain, agitate with a brush, rinse with water and repeat until the stain is gone. Let the area dry and vacuum up any residue.

    Since I like instantaneous gratification and the spray gets down into the padding, I like the first two methods best.

    Yes, OXYCLEAN is the best thing on earth for red wine stains.
    I spilled it over my sister in law’s new sofa at her family’s beach house and I drove 90 miles to the nearest "big city" that had it…WORTH EVERY GALLON OF GAS!
    I swear, it was like a Seinfeld episode with the marble rye, but alls well that ends well!
    BUT!!!! make sure you carefully saturate the area—you do not want to get it TOO WET because too much wet can RUIN THE PADDING AND FLOOR UNDERNEATH and then you’re screwed.

    two days is tough, it has soaked down to the pad. Oxy clean is a good start, but you need something better to completly remove it. Depending on color of carpet, you could re dye the carpet. Though start with a good citrus based cleaner like ‘holy cow’, you can get it at Walmart. Spray, let set for 30 sec and scrub like hell. Dab the area dry and vacuum any residue.

    all i gotta say is replace the CARPET and it wouldnt be there in the first place if u try using a sippy cup for being so clumsy

    Test for colorfastness first, get peroxide and dab on the wine stain and see if that works. It should soak the stain and smell right up, if you want a little more deoderizng shake some baking powder on the carpet after it dries and vacum as normal. If the peroxide doesn’t do the trick vinegar should.

    Hope this helps!

    My all-time favorite carpet-stain remover is Folex, sold at home improvement stores, among other places. I’ve used it to remove year-old red wine stains, baby puke, coffee, grease… I also use it to remove tough laundry stains. I love this stuff, and wish the company would pay me a commission for all the recommendations I’ve made to friends and family. You can find them online at http://www.folexcompany.com/

    Spritz with warm water and put a thick layer of salt on top. Ideally this works better if the wine stain is fresh……. worth a try. The salt should in theory lift the stain.
