Mix Dawn dishwashing liquid soap with hydrogen peroxide...then pour on the stain and let sit as a presoak. Neither of these ingredients works by itself. You must use BOTH. You'll actually see the red wine disappear as you drizzle the mixture on a stain! I have used it to take major red wine stains out of ALL clothing and table cloths (regardless of the color of the item). I have used it on old dried stains and stains that were laundered, bleached and subsequently turned "yellow". OLD, old stains have been successfully removed. Just make sure the soap/peroxide mixture is relatively fresh.

as i recall it was a jug of wine.
and I'd use the carbona stain removers found in the cleaning isle of your local grocery store. They work wonders.

I like to use a Spray n Wash or Shout laundry stick. Sometimes it takes 2-3 washes to get the stain completely out depending on what it is.

oxy clean can get like anything out, hasn't failed me yet. and it's pretty cheap too i think. you can prolly get some at target or walgreens or something like that. good luck with the rest of those stains

Do you know if that combo will work on chocolate stains? I have a bunch of clothes from my kids with chocolate ice cream stains on them, that I cannot get out even with multiple washings and the use of assorted pre-treaters. I haven't put them in the dryer yet as I know that will "set" the stain. A book I read said to use drycleaning fluid found in the store to get chocolate stains out, but I can't find any in my local stores.Why must kids always get chocolate stains on their white clothing only is a mystery to me. I'm going to try that combo out to see if it'll work.
