Bright Yellow Pollen Stain & Ice Pop Stains
« on: October 18, 2004, 06:31:05 pm »
Has anyone managed to get the yellow pollen stain (from lillies) out of carpet?
80/20, light beige carpet today, little yellow spots that the customer had tried to get out with water and had turned the pollen into a dye.

Also green and blue ice pop stains, haven't come across them for a few weeks but they are impossible...does anyone know how to get rid?

Many T's

Hi BFN

Stain removal is a massive and often complex area where there is quite often more than one answer. Try the another forum site as it has a section dedicated to stain removal.

safe and happy spotting :)

Hi Big Fish


Solution Eco Spotter, lightly sprayed onto the pollen stain and blotted gently with a towel will remove this from carpet and upholstery, I have manged to remove it on a large number of occasions within a few seconds.

hope this helps

Best regards Nick

Hi Big Fishy,

I get yellow pollen out using white spirit , rub gently then extract.

Once customer has tried various things on it , it is much more difficult.

cheers,
