Start from the outer edges of the stain and work your way in.

]]> 5007 1 38 Tip If you don’t have anything else on hand, pour a thick layer of salt on the stain to keep it from setting. When you have the proper cleaning ingredients, vacuum up the salt and follow the rest of the steps.

]]> 5008 2 50 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/289/50.jpg Mix together the dishwashing liquid, white vinegar, and warm water in a bowl.

]]> 5009 3 57 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/289/57.jpg Blot the mixture onto the stain with a clean white rag, starting at the outer edges of the stain. As you go, blot the same area with a dry rag or paper towels, alternating between dabbing on the cleaning solution and blotting it dry.

]]> 5010 4 71 Tip For stubborn stains, pour a mixture of one part dishwashing liquid and two parts hydrogen peroxide on the stain, but first dab a little on an inconspicuous spot to make sure it won’t cause discoloration.

]]> 5011 5 84 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/289/84.jpg When the stain is gone, dampen a clean white rag with cold water and blot the area again.

]]> 5012 6 91 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/289/91.jpg Blot the area dry with another clean white rag or paper towels.

]]> 5013 7 96 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/289/96.jpg Stop blotting, you’re done. Now toast your good work with a glass of wine—just sip carefully…

]]> 5014 8 104 Fact The tannins in red wine that make these stains are so stubborn they can even stain stone.
