What works best for vomit stains?

[Jake Wisecarver]

Cleaning a carpet with a couple of throw up stains from dogs. Still kind of new to the business, wondering what works best to get it out. What are your thoughts?

 

[Mikey P]

40 volume peroxide (Sally's Beauty Supply) or Stain Magic or it's equivalent.


soak the fibers and give it 20 minutes or so to dwell. If it's all organic barf it should all rinse way.

If there was artificial food dye or worse in their system, you'll need a reducing agent like Red Relief to deal with that..

 

[J Scott W]

Start by removing anythijng that can be scraped or vacuumed away without adding chemistry.

Neutralize the stomach acid by first cleaning with any alkaline carpet prespray.

I agree with Mike's concept, but will substitute our Bridgepoint product names - Stain Zone or RedZONE for artificial colors. These are often found in Dog food.

 

[Mikey P]

Excellent products as well.

Sometime they are on meds that can stain too. Treat same as above but not everything comes out. Under promise and over preform.

Here is if you have to heat transfer... Wet Towel and Steam iron can work too, but have to be even more careful.

This is Black and Decker Steamworks wall paper steamer... Find them on eBay. Some sell new equivalent models. You want this and not a steamer with a hose going to steamer hand held part. That type unit doesn't really work. Looses heat.
