Help! Wine Spill Advice Needed.
Recently on my way home from the grocery store a bottle of red wine broke in the trunk. When I got home to unload the groceries I noticed that the carpet was damp and quickly realized the wine smell.
Side note... of course it was the expensive bottle I bought and not any of the cheaper ones.
I grabbed a few towels and soaked up as much of the wine as I could out of the carpet. Once I had done that I left the trunk open to get some air circulating. After about 20 mins I went back and sprinkled baking soda all over the trunk hoping it would help absorb what was left. This was my wife's idea... I left the baking soda in the trunk until the next day. In the morning I vacuumed the baking soda out of the trunk. Everything seemed dry as can be... however the sour wine smell was still there. I thought it would slowly go away but it has been a week now and it is still lingering. I do believe that it is slowly going away but I thought maybe someone here can offer some advice on what else I could try that would accelerate the process?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
