OR

RED FRUIT

Types:

Cherry, grape, blueberry, blackberry, cranberry, raspberry, strawberry and
there juices.

Problem:

All these fruits contain dyes which can be very difficult to remove.

Solution:

1.Clean area with cold water

Cautiono not use soap, it can set the stain .

2. If stain still remains poultice with 20% hydrogen peroxide and poultice
powder.

3.If stain is still not removed , poultice with toluene and poultice powder.
