Only HD near me closed a few months ago.
Would Lowe`s or Wally World have Folex

[JaredPointer]

Yes, I have found Folex at both places.

Can`t say for carpet, but cold water seems to work best with clothing.
A lot of products will "set" the blood stain and then it will be permanent. Hot water tends to set the stain as well.
If the cold water doesn`t do it and you need to use a chemical that may affect the color/dye of the carpet.

Also, here`s a link that might help.

Could not be a better answer...and question for BB to ask in light of our banter recently



BB, do you have an Oxyclean on hand?

Folex is also a great choice...I`ve also heard that seltzer water works, but that`s on fresh blood.

APC and cold water ...

[Mr. Clean]

BlackBart, Though I don`t speak from experience, Folex does list blood as one of the stains that is is effective at cleaning.

Two other options, both target organic based stains and mention blood specifically in their list of stains sources. I have found both to be very effective on other organic based stains.

Really?

As you know APC comes in many forms of qualities and strengthens..there are also three different types with in that...that I am aware of...detergent, chemical and natural based cleaners.

I know what yours is, is that what you where suggesting that BB use? and if so what process would you advice?

I used Folex and my vapor steamer on a recent job, with the exception of the seatbelt it ALL came out. The job was a blood and bits of liver bath from a gentleman who was hemoraging on the way to get a liver transplant.
