I've had variable success with stain removers but I DO rely a lot on plain
old peroxide. I am a quilter and either my steam iron will gush an ugly
spurt or I'll poke a finger and bleed on my quilt. Always, with no harm, a
rub/scrub with peroxide will soak out the stain. Probably does no harm to
my finger wound. Polly
