How to get rid of Mayonnaise Stains from wool, synthetic carpet, silk or fiberglass

ӬTake a dull tool, like a plastic spatula or plastic putty knife, and gently scrape any excess mayonnaise that has deposited on the material. Next, take a wet sponge and rub the stain outwards from the center of the stain with any dry cleaning liquid that you may have. Then, take a dry spotter and put it on to the stain and cover with another sponge or cotton pad that is moistened with dry spotter. Keep it until you see the stains have just about completely dissipated. If the pad absorbs a lot of stain, change it. Ensure that both the stain and pad are moist at all times. When the pad stops absorbing any stain, use a dry cleaning liquid to remove any residues that could have been deposited as a result of the stain removers.

Finally, keep it out for drying. However, if the stain is still present, use a product called an enzyme pre-soak. Follow the directions that will be given on the product label. After you use it, cover the stain with a cotton pad that is filled with the solution and squeeze it until it dries. Leave it untouched for 30 minutes, and make sure you add just enough solution to keep the stained area moist and warm, but not too much to avoid it from spreading all over. Thoroughly wash with water and finally put out to dry. For carpets, take a new dry pad and cover the stained area and apply pressure on it. When the liquid is no longer being absorbed, lay it out for air drying.
