  1. soak it in cider


  2. Resolve!  That stuff is amazing for most fabrics!

  3. What about getting a new purse.

  4. Bleach, great for removing stains and drinking your problems away!

  5. no clue I'm a dude.

  6. If it's cloth Greta, I usually rinse it with cold water asap. Even if it's later, try cold water first. Then I use something like Shout Stick or a small mixture of oxi clean and leave it set over night. Usually it will come out. I have a bad record with spilling coffee and that's what works for me.  =o`)

  7. howd you get a coffee stain on your purse?

  8. What kind of material is it Greta?

    Anyway, it depends on what the purse is made of. If it's leather you don't want to use bleach. There are special cleaners for leather and suede that work great. Coach sells one that's nice.

    If it's cotton or jacquard I would try a very little bit of vinegar or soda water on the spot (not like Coke..but clear soda water you can get in the mixed drink section or water section of your grocery store). If you use vinegar use very little and know that it will smell funny for a little while.

    Worse case...get it dry cleaned or take it to a place that cleans leather (if it's leather).

    I would avoid bleach or soap of any kind. Look at the label though..maybe you can just wash it in the washing machine. In that case use a little bit of Oxiclean or Simple Green to get it out (see directions on both for good results).

    I worked in a bakery and we use to wash our chef coats in simple green and dry dish washer soap..worked great for grease stains, but coffee is mostly water and should come out with gentel cleaners.

  9. use Dawn dish detergent. It gets out ALL stains related to food

  10. Try those bleach pens.

  11. Buy a new one.

  12. Buy new purse and don't spill cofee again. Be happy coz u got a reason for shopping.
