Effective Ways to Remove Wine Stains from Surfaces
Act Quickly The sooner you treat a wine spill, the easier it is to remove. Blot the stain immediately with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb as much liquid as possible—avoid rubbing, as that can spread the stain.
Use Household Items For most surfaces, try using a solution of dish soap and hydrogen peroxide. Apply it to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes before blotting or gently scrubbing with a soft cloth.
On Fabric or Upholstery Sprinkle baking soda or salt over the stain to absorb the wine, then rinse with cold water. For tougher stains, use white vinegar followed by a bit of liquid detergent before washing.
For Hard Surfaces (like countertops or tile) Make a paste with baking soda and water, apply it to the stain, and let it sit for 10–15 minutes. Wipe it off with a damp cloth and repeat if necessary.
Prevent Staining Seal porous surfaces like marble or unglazed tiles to protect them from wine and other spills. Regular maintenance goes a long way in keeping your surfaces stain-free.
