1. Club soda. Oxy Clean if you've got it.

Diluting with clear, cold water and blotting continuously also helps.

2. I think salt is supposed to help

3. Yes, if you pour a little pyramid of salt on to a wet spot on a carpet

the liquid is absorbed up into the salt. Then buzzard should try the things in the first post.
Resolve carpet cleaner worked very well when a friend spilled red wine on white carpeted stairs at a rented vacation condo.

4. Thanks for the info.n/t

5. cover it with salt. it will soak into the salt and not the carpet

6. I think it is too late for that my carpet is apparently quite absorbent.

7. Then definitely try the Oxy.

It'll probably take several applications, but hopefully you'll get it all out. Good luck!

8. Drink more wine

Drink more wine and you will care about the carpet less.

Or if that doesn't work, then I suppose that the seltzer-then-oxyclean solutions posted upthread make sense. Good luck!
