Set in coffee stains on carpet

Question

What will remove them?

Teri Mauerman Shehorn · Answer

In a very inconspicous place, such as removing a register grate, test to see if the carpet is bleach safe. Cleaning the carpet alone will prob result in the coffee stain rising to the surface. My carpets are bleach safe and I do this when something was spilled and soaked into the padding as the stain will rise back up through the carpet even when cleaned using bleach and carpet shampoo. If your carpet is bleach safe, meaning your test spot had no color change and once dry you rub the spot with a wet cloth, then dry again and no color change, then you are safe to proceed.  In a spray bottle, make a half and half mix of water and bleach, lightly mist the stain until the stain starts to disappear. If it reappears mist it lightly again. You only want the surface of the carpet to get we or it could hydrate the dried coffee in the pad and cause the stain to rise through the carpet again. Good luck!

It cleans every stain I've used it on including coffee, tea and soda.My carpet in auto was a horrible mess and it looks new. The can is silver and blue just look for it cost about 5 dollars a can but a big can. Good luck

Spray and Wipe thickly on the stain and leave for 10 minutes, then soak up with a thick towel.

The absolute best thing for stains I have found is a product called SPOT SHOT. I use it on laundry pretreat and carpet stains. It works great and doesn't bleach the carpet out like oxiclean. It is readibly available at Home Depot, Walmart and Target, as well as other stores.

Additional Carpet Care Tips Beer, wine, coffee and tea Blot and neutralize with a white vinegar solution, then work a small amount of a detergent solution into the spot (1/4 teaspoon detergent per 1 qt. of water). Continue applying detergent and blotting until spot is completely removed. Using a spray bottle, rinse with tap water and blot to remove excess moisture. Apply paper towels and weigh them down, allowing the spot to dry. Here are more cleaning guidelines for stains. http://www.mohawkflooring.com/flooring-care-maintenance/carpet-care.aspx

I personally use plain hydrogen peroxide on my carpets for pretty much any type of stain other than grease. It will get up cat or dog vomit, as well as other cat or dog 'deposits', and I would bet it will get the coffee stains out. I just pour a little directly on the stain. You'd want to test a small, inconspicuous area first just to make sure it doesn't fade out your carpet, but in all the years I've been using it, I've never had that happen.

I use hydrogen peroxide in a spray bottle on all my carpet and clothing stains. Just spray and let it set for a minute or less then wipe up or repeat as needed..

Chloe Crabtree · Answer

Use 1/4 cup of white vinegar, 1 tbsp. of Dawn dish soap, and fill with water. Spray area liberally and let soak for 5-10 minutes and then proceed with blotting with a clean, dry towel until stain is removed. Some carpet stain removal products can be of great benefit for combating many types of carpet stains.

Hydrogen peroxide

If you have a white or light carpet, you can make a hydrogen peroxide solution to remove a coffee stain from your carpet. Mix 1 tablespoon of 3% H2O2 hydrogen peroxide with 3 tablespoons of warm (not hot) water. You would use this the same way as your dish soap solution. You should definitely spot test the solution first, as it may bleach your carpet.
