AAaaarrghhh! I hope some one can help me!!
My plonker of a boyfriend got chocolate all over one of our white chairs, and somehow managed to hide it from me for a week!! :mad:
I finally noticed last night and got scrubbing using a carpet cleaner spray (only thing in the house that'd work!!).
Anyways, it got the chocolate out (and other marks he has manged to get on it :rolleyes: ) but has left a hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee water stain!!!
Really annoyed because they are fairly new-ish!
Any ideas how to get rid of it? I was considering covering the whole chair in water so its just one big stain! But then it wont match the other chair :rolleyes:

Then you'll have to clean both chairs.
You could try a dry cleaning dab it stick type thing along the line of the stain since it'll be muck that was lifted buy the water...
..don't forget to test it for colour safe somewhere not normally visible.
Other than that you really might have to clean both chairs to get them to match again. Given the cost of cleaning agents and the amount of hard graft involved you might find that getting an upholstery cleaner person in is a reasonable option.
And finally - tell your BF he can only eat chocolate in the garden from now on - and that only after he's paid for the cleaning!
