Procedure

• Always immediately take action in case of stain and spills. 
• Our instant reaction is to rub it with a towel, but that actually only makes it worse. Dabbing it is the best approach. 
• Do not blow the stain with a dryer either ( in most cases people do this if its a wet stain), it will be more difficult to remove if dry.
• Try to absorb as much as the liquid as possible, you can do this by blotting or using a vacuum. Surprisingly this technique does work. 
• Determine what mixture or chemical you will use, make sure it wont be something that will damage the area.
• A good stain remover always does the trick, but for a homemade remedy applying some detergent, warm water and white vinegar mix will also help clean the stain ( see below for specifics on some common spills ) . 
• In order to not spread the stain, start from the outside and work your way int. 
• Rinse the mixture or chemicals that you used with warm water. 
• Blot the spot with towels as much as possible. Do this specially if you are dealing with upholstery until fully dry in order to absorb all the moisture.
