Default Clean Up Help

Hi everyone,
So some champagne was spilled in the trunk of my Mazda 3. Any tips on what would be the best way to clean this up?

Thanks!

Well, don't use grape juice. Sorry, its an old joke.
That doesn't sound too bad. Why not simply take the mat/carpet out and rince it out?
A Sham-WOW might get most of it too?

Yep, I've rinsed it out but it still smells and is sticky. I didn't know if there might be another way.

Hmmm. Sticky after a rinsing? That should come out pretty easily I would think.
As for the smell, I'm not sure, but Fabreze' might help that.
Short of that, a full shampoo may be in order.

Use a carpet cleaner, one with the furniture attachment kit. Make sure the water is hot and use upholestry cleaner
