I had a large coke stain on a wool mix a few months ago,soaked with MPower and left to dwell for 20 minutes.
Rinsed out and it had gone

i thank you wayne, i do have some m power on board, shall give it a try.  was a bit concerned about the length of time the stain has been down ..................

I had some coke stain in an office last week.  Sprayed down with Chemspec 105 agitated (at this point the coke had vanished) then hot water extracted.  No problems at all.  http://www.restormate.co.uk/epages/15094.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/15094/Products/DFC1051G/SubProducts/DFC1051G

what was the common ingedient used to make the coke stain disapear oh yes warm water , ain't water great !!  solves loads of problems cold on blood though 

[Shaun_Ashmore]

I always think that a cleaning solution applied first allows it to penetrate the fibres also breaking the bond of protein then a straight forward rinse and then a towel off to dry it out and look for any dirt transfer.

If you have Chemspec Coffee Stain Remover, that should do the trick, just follow the instruction on the lable, again available from Restomate.
Coke has a caramel food colouring in it.

doing this rescheduled job today, let you know how it goes.....

[tim handley]

well, on arrival the customer had changed the stain from an old coke stain to possibly an old blackcurrant juice stain???   either way, prochem fibre shampoo/floormac bonnett=  straight off, bingo!!!!!!
