Kiss Red Wine Stains goodbye! Here is how you get rid of red wine stains. Pour cold water onto the stained area as quickly as possible. Blot with a cloth and sprinkle salt onto the red wine stain. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Rinse with cold water while rubbing out the red wine stain. Repeat steps 1-3 until no more red wine stain can be removed. Rub with liquid laundry detergent and allow to stand for several minutes before rinsing thoroughly with cold water. Apply a spot stain remover stick, spray, or gel and wash according to clothing directions with liquid laundry detergent. Cheers & Good Luck!
