This is one of the most amazing things I have seen in my life. We have a expensive berber area rug at our front entrance. Two weeks ago I ordered a curry takeout and when it was delivered, the bottom of the paper bag was wet, it came apart when I picked it up and one of the curry dish containers fell landed on the area rug, flipped over and I had this curry dish all over a large area of the carpet. I spent a half hour using our spot carpet cleaner getting it all up and I was so pleased that after the clean up there wasn't even a hint of residual curry odor. The next when I opened the front door I was so disappointed to see that when the sunshine hit the front of the rug, there was a distinct yellow curry stain left behind. After research on curry stain removal. I figured my only option was to live with the stain or replace this expensive rug. Then I came across your video. I purchased the 6% peroxide and the UV light from Amazon for about 35 dollars in total which was a fraction of what it would cost to replace this rug. I have to work one area of the carpet at a time. The stain was too big to get it all in one treatment but as I am typing this, I am using this method and so far the stains are about 80% gone. I am gobsmacked at the genius of this and I cannot thank you enough.

Hello! Do you think this technique would work for dog bile vomit stain? I may have given my dog a turmeric supplement before he ate the grass that instigated the puke. I've tried all the things that usually get dog bile up with failure.

@TheStainGuide 2 года назад

I would try using hydrogen peroxide without UV light as a first step. Hydrogen peroxide and UV light creates a stronger oxidation reaction, but this method is not always necessary to remove stains. In this case it is not guaranteed that the stain is caused by turmeric, so that is why I would start with hydrogen peroxide. Please check out this video for details on using hydrogen peroxide without UV Light: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d1Toi44x7pY.html If hydrogen peroxide doesn't work, you can try adding UV light as shown in this video.

Would this work on natural wool carpets? I read elsewhere that perhaps not?

@TheStainGuide Год назад

This method will remove turmeric stains from wool carpet, however, it is possible that it could damage the wool fibers so I do not recommend it. I have also never used this method to remove a turmeric stain from a wool carpet or carpet made from natural fiber so I cannot say whether it would cause damage if only used for a short duration. There was a person who left a comment on one of my videos saying that he removed a turmeric stain from his white wool carpet without any issues using this method.

@aparnakurhade4973 Год назад

Can we use hydrogen peroxide and ammonia solution as you suggested for coffee stain

@TheStainGuide Год назад

Unfortunately, hydrogen peroxide and ammonia alone will not break down curcumin (yellow pigments in turmeric). hydrogen peroxide and UV light is required for turmeric stains. These reactions are from a branch of chemistry called electrochemistry, meaning that they are dealing with electrical current and voltage. The voltage of the reaction with hydrogen peroxide and ammonia is lower than the voltage of the hydroxyl radicals that are produced from hydrogen peroxide and UV light. This higher voltage reaction is what is needed to break down turmeric stains. Good luck and great question!

Thanks so much for this . I got turmeric powder on the carpet 4 days ago. Since then i tried getting it off with vinegar, bicarb , water + washing up detergent, but it spread the stain so I now have a larger, patchy stain with more of a pale beige color. I think I got the carpet too wet and also the carpet has got worn from my scrubbing :( i then tried using Vanish carpet cleaner , a few times, but there is stil a stain. Is it safe to now use this method and will it work to get the remaining colour from my carpet?

@TheStainGuide Год назад

Yes, this method should work for you. It sounds like you got most of the stain out so the UV light and hydrogen peroxide method should work very quickly. Let me know how it goes if you try it. Good luck 🤞

@emilysmith1000 Год назад

@@TheStainGuide thanks so much! I'm just wondering whether there might be residue left from the other cleaning products, could the chemicals react with the hydrogen peroxide and cause a problem? Or it's ok?

@TheStainGuide Год назад

I would say it is unlikely that residue from the products you have used will create an adverse effect. Some of the cleaning agents that you have used possibly have a high pH. The high Ph residue could speed up the reaction. This means that you can check the progress more frequently. I think in the video, I checked and moved the light every 15 minutes. Maybe check the progress every 5 minutes or less.

@madcow809 Год назад

Would this UV light make a difference when applied in addition to your coffee video?

@TheStainGuide Год назад

The short answer is: I would stick to using hydrogen peroxide and ammonia alone for coffee stains. There is a case where I would add UV light. Let me explain below: Coffee stains are caused by two molecules that get stuck to the carpet fibers. The main molecules is called a melanoidin pigment, the other molecule is called a tannin pigment. Hydrogen peroxide and ammonia alone will break down the melanoidin pigments. If you have repeated the hydrogen peroxide and ammonia method 3 to 4 times, and are still left with a faint brown stain, it is probably caused by tannin pigments from the coffee. Tannin pigments are not easily broken down by hydrogen peroxide and ammonia alone. It is rare that these tannin pigments cause a problem from coffee stains. Typically the tannin pigment concentration from coffee is so low that it doesn't result in any staining of the carpet. But if you do have a faint brown stain after using the hydrogen peroxide/ammonia method 3 to 4 times, you can try using hydrogen peroxide and UV light afterwards to try and break down the remaining stain caused by tannin pigments. Don't use hydrogen peroxide and UV light on your carpet for an extended period of time though. Approximately 1 hour or less is enough to remove the remaining stain.

Will this work in LV flooring? I dropped a huge bottle of turmeric liquid on my luxury vinyl floors.. 😢 I've tried literally everything do you have any suggestions?

@TheStainGuide 9 месяцев назад

This method should work on vinyl flooring as well. I have used this method to remove turmeric stains from wooden counters and it worked well. Just mist 6% hydrogen peroxide over the stained area, then shine the UV light on it. I'd suggest testing the method in an inconspicuous area to ensure that it doesn't cause damage to the vinyl. Since vinyl is a synthetic material, and dyed with synthetic dyes, it is highly unlikely that it will result in any damage. Good luck!

@ljern0222 Год назад

Do you need to keep spraying more hydrogen peroxide in between the 20 minute black light intervals. And how many times should it take before the stain is gone.

@TheStainGuide Год назад

Most of the time one hydrogen peroxide application is more than enough. the total time needed under the UV light depends on how bad the stain is. If the stain is light in color it may only take 5-10 minutes under the UV light for the stain to fully come out. If the stain is dark, like the one I removed in the video, then it will take more time under the UV light.

@ljern0222 Год назад

Thank you for your response. This technique has really helped. I have gotten most of the color of the turmeric out. I have continued to spray more hydrogen peroxide because it seems dried up after the black light sits on it for 20 minutes. There are still a few droplet type spots (this happened from my dog chewing on turmeric capsules and then vomiting it up on my carpet). So, should I just keep exposing to the UV light until it all disappears and not spray anymore hydrogen peroxide.

@TheStainGuide Год назад

@TheStainGuide Год назад

@@aliensuperstar1233 no problem, I'm happy to answer your question. Say your shirt is made out of cotton, what you are seeing is the original color of a cotton plant on the new spots on your shirt, which is not perfectly white but has a hint of yellow/brown. When textile industries make white fabric for clothing, they start with cotton that is a yellow/brown color and then they bleach it with a reducing agent and add whitening agents to make it perfectly white. Unfortunately, what has happened to your shirt is you have undone the bleaching that was done with a reducing agent by using a strong oxidizing agent (hydroxyl radicals). Additionally the whitening agents have probably been broken down by the hydroxyl radicals. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to fix your shirt, or at least no easy way that I am aware of. Sorry I can't help you fix it ☹️. Also this happens to fabrics other than cotton, like synthetic fibers too.

This works great. Actually you won’t need hydrogen peroxide and I used pencils instead of chopstick

We don’t have uv light at home

Fair point. Most people don't have one. If you are able to take the carpet into direct sunlight, the sunlight would work as a UV light. Unfortunately, turmeric stains cannot be removed without UV light because the UV light is what splits the hydrogen peroxide molecules into hydroxyl radicals. Just make sure you take the carpet out of the sunlight right after the stain disappears. If you don't, it might start to take the color out of your carpet.
