HELP Fanta drink stain

Well a friend of mine had dropped like half a cup of a 32oz RED fanta drink in my brand new g35 i just bought like a week earlier. I was wondering if any one knows how i can get the red fanta stain out. i tried using all the products from wal-mart and stuff like oxy-clean but it aint doin the job. I'm pretty sure there's gotta be some type of product to permanently remove the stain

I am guessing the Carpet.

I think you're screwed man, if it had been oxyclean seconds after it had happened you may have had a chance. My old car had a charcoal interior and had a similar red stain and I could never get it out. I just put a mat over it haha.

You could try bleaching it but you run the risk of making it look even worse by taking all the color out so I don't suggest that.

Just keep trying with different carpet stain removes, watch some infomercials haha.

Try Woolite or Folex.

If all fails, go to a detailer and ask how much for a shampoo. Could be $75-100.

alright man here we go lol you need to go to napa or schucks or some other place that sells car parts and cleaning supplies. You need to find a can of awesome orange. that stuff is amazing, my girlfriend sat on a highlighter that was in my front seat and turned almost the entire seat pink! (i also have a tan interior) all you do is spray the stuff on and rub it out. It took me 2 sprays to get all the highlighter out. it also took all the mud and dirt off my floor mats and all the finger prints off my headliner.

I love folex and have had great results with it. Give folex a go if it's available around your area.
