Step 1: Pre-treating the stain
When it comes to removing beetroot stains, the first step is crucial. Begin by gently scraping off any excess beetroot from the surface of the fabric. This helps prevent the stain from spreading further into the material or carpet fibres. Remember, it's important not to rub the stain, as this can make it more difficult to remove. Instead, focus on gently removing any visible beetroot remnants – there’s no need to try and work deeper into the stain at this point. By taking this initial step, you'll be setting yourself up for success in getting rid of those stubborn beetroot stains.
Step 2: Rinse the stained area
After pre-treating the beetroot stain, it's time to move on to the next step: rinsing the stained area. This step is crucial in preventing the stain from setting in and becoming even more difficult to remove. Start by running cold water over the stain, allowing it to flush out as much of the beetroot juice as possible. Be sure to rinse from the back of the fabric or carpet to push the stain outwards – this will help to minimise any further spreading of the stain. By thoroughly rinsing the area, you'll be one step closer to successfully removing that stubborn beetroot stain.
Step 3: Applying Vanish stain remover for fabrics
Now that you've pre-treated and rinsed the beetroot stain, it's time to treat it with a stain remover. For stains on white clothing, use the Vanish Oxi Action Crystal White Powder and for colours use the Vanish Oxi Action Multi Power Powder to keep your whites whiter.

These powerful products are specially formulated to tackle tough stains like beetroot. Start by applying a small amount of the stain remover directly onto the stain. Use the bottom of the dosing scoop to gently rub the product into the stain, allowing it to penetrate the fabric. Let it sit for a few minutes to work its magic (max 5 min). Vanish stain remover is designed to break down and lift stubborn stains, making it an essential tool in your stain removal arsenal.
Step 4: Washing or blotting the treated area
After pre-treating, rinsing, and treating the beetroot stain with Vanish, it's time to complete the stain removal process. For clothing stains, wash the garment as usual, following the care instructions on the label. This will help remove any remaining residue and ensure the stain is completely gone. Repeat the process if necessary until the stain is completely gone. With these final steps, you'll be able to confidently say goodbye to those stubborn beetroot stains and restore your items to their original condition.
Step 5: Removing beetroot stains from carpets
If you're dealing with a beetroot stain on your carpet, use Vanish carpet and upholstery Oxi Action spray and you'll be amazed at how the beetroot stain has vanished. If in doubt, make sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area before full application and always follow the instructions on the back of the packaging.
