- Saturate the area with the club soda/seltzer
- Blot again to remove all the excess.
- Sprinkle on salt to cover the spot. Use as much as needed for the size of the spot
- Let sit 12 hours or until totally dry
- Vacuum well in all directions to remove the salt. A vacuum with a beater bar works best. Be sure the vacuum canister or bag is not over filled for the best suction.
Warnings & Cautions:
Do not overly saturate the spill with he club soda/seltzer Always blot really well. Standing on pads of paper towels works well.
Linda Says:
This is great for natural or synthetic carpets
Why It Works:
The club soda's carbonation lifts the stain by bubbling it up and the salt absorbs it.
