Fiberglass, Rayon, Rope, Silk, Triacetate, Wool
Blot up any excess spill and sponge (the method of using a dampened pad to apply light strokes, moving outward from the center of the stain) the area with dry-cleaning solvent such as Afta Cleaning Fluid. Apply a dry spotter to the stain and cover with an absorbent pad moistened with dry spotter. Let it stand as long as any spill is removed. Change the pad as it picks up the stain and keep both the pad and stain moist with dry spotter. When no more stain is removed, flush with the dry-cleaning solvent. Allow to dry. When treating carpets, blot up excess liquid. Cover the area with an absorbent pad and weigh it down. When no more liquid is being absorbed, allow the area to thoroughly air dry. Or, after blotting up excess dressing, treat the stain with Stain-X Carpet Stain Remover or Up & Out (do not use Up & Out on wool carpets).
