Stain problem

[AndySpeed]

Hi all

The other day on one of those ridiculously drunk student nights out I came back home with red wine on my jumper (despite the fact I don't even drink it). I was so tired at the point I got in that I immediately fell asleep, but as soon as I woke up I put the jumper in soak with some stuff called Bio-tex (I really don't know what it does)

Does anyone know how I can remove a red wine stain?

There is only 1 way to remove a dried red wine stain .....

But how long does it take to completely dry and set in? I put it in soak after about 10 hours of it happening.

Have just had a look at the jumper and there's no red mark, but the hue around the stain zone is still slightly different...

I've searched and searched the internet and even brough some stain removing products today. I hope this works!!

Surely it'd be easier just to buy another jumper?

Indeed salt does the trick, but only when the stain is still wet.
