I think that I read on this group that potassium metabisulfite would
neutralize the color in a red wine spill. Am I right or was I dreaming?
Just spilled some (which didn't need neutralizing) and it popped into mind.

I would try white wine first, it works well.

I agree. I'm not sure Pot Meta would really do what you want. White
wine does a pretty good job. Rubbing Alcohol does a good job. Oxiclean
does a good job and is usually safe for fabrics.

I use a product called Folex from Home Depot. It's an amazing product
that I found while looking for something to get out spilled sugar free
Kool-Aid. I had tried everything including a shampooing but nothing
got the stain out completely. Folex got the stain out after it had
been down for over a month. Since then I have used it on everything
including red wine stains. It's funny, I loved the product so much I
actually researched to see if it was a publicly traded company.
Unfortunately if it was I couldn't find the connection to a parent
company. Everyone I have shown it to is a customer for life now, my
entire family uses it. One more thing and I'll stop obsessing. If you
squirt some in the palm of your hand, it looks and feels like water
with no soapy or chemical smell and is not slimy like some other
products. I've used it on every type of upholstery I own it is safe on
everything. Ok I'll stop now.

Thanks to everyone for their replies. From the answers I guess I must have
dreamed that metabisulfite would work. Now I've got a complete list.

Sulifte will bleach out some of the red colour but probably no all.
