Quoting Leif og Bjarne Drews <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I remember i saw a tv programme from the workshop at Chanel where
all the work of the couturieres was shown.
It happened from time to time, that some of the ladies, stuck their
fingers and bleeded on the haute couture creations, but then they
had a lady they send for who emediately came and removed the blod
stains.
What do you think they used?
I have often wondered about this, and also because sometimes it
happens for myself two.
What do you do?
Soak it in salt water.
Or just plain cold water, straight away. You will have to rinse it quite a
bit
though. If it's not something you can get wet maybe the red wine on the
carpet
trick would work - sprinkle liberally with salt and rub in. The idea is the
salt
soaks the liquid out. It would probably work with any other 'thirsty' dry
material
too - sugar, or cornflour.
Whatever you do don't use warm or hot water as this sets the stain.
