Coffee stain removal
Let's face it, if you drink thousands of cups of coffee a year, you're going to spill eventually. I myself had this problem when pouring a cup of joe out the window of my Ford Taurus on the highway going 70 miles an hour, by the way, don't do it. So when you're about to arrive at a business meeting and have the terrible brown stain on your blouse or pristine white shirt, or even if you have plenty of time to get rid of it at home, here are some simple tips and products you can use to get rid of those pesky stains.
First, you might just want to go with the commercial stain remover. Usually it comes in pen form and you rub the stain out with it. It's a quick fix for the business meeting and maybe you can just cross your arms in front of you the whole time, makes you look cooler anyway.
Or if you have more time and less money you can mix one teaspoon of cold white vinegar in cold water and sponge the stain out with that also. Just make sure it is white vinegar, or you'll have a whole new problem.
Try mixing egg yolk with a few teaspoons of water and rubbing alcohol and applying it to the selected area, then go into the kitchen and have eggs with what's left.
And of course, the solution that's been around since the dinosaurs, baking soda, just about cures anything.
