I got Karo syrup on my car's velour upholstery. Answer me anything! |
|
Lousy cap apparently not sealed at the factory.
The question: How can I get it OUT?!?

3. $19.95 a copy, plus you'll get 'Jack Russell Terriers Gone Wild' |

2. This is one time I am happy that I have leather seats. |
|
The other time was when I dropped my jamba juice all over the inside of my car.

4. Bum a steam cleaner if you don't have one |
|
otherwise, simple green and water, blot frequently with towels. Warm water, not hot enough to caremelize the sugars, because then you'll have a lovely brown ring in your upholstery. A little oxiclean may help if you test it and it's okay with your upholstery.

10. Thanks, after almost four years of cloth diapering LK |
|
I think I've got enough life experience credit for a phd in laundry science. I don't mind sharing the stain removal love. :)

8. Go back to the grocery store, ask to see the manager |
|
take him to the car and show him.. Those bottles are supposed to be sealed and "tamper-proof".. The store's insurance policy may pay to have it professionally cleaned:)

13. Unfortunately, I was taking it *from* home to a food bank... |
|
...'cause what hungry person does NOT need Karo syrup?
Actually, it was among other canned goods, etc.

14. Well.. THAT'll teach you to give away |
|
"used" syrup :P
Sorry about the mess.. I once had a 2-liter bottle of Coke explode inside the van:)
The bottle cap actually "dinged" the windshield :scared:.. It flew right past my head :)

15. Is that worse than a very nice couch getting repeated dousings |
|
Edited on Tue Mar-29-05 05:32 PM by bertha katzenengel
of pissed-off cat pee? (heh... get it?)
I'm sorry about your car seat, Richardo. I have no advice.
By the way, Richardo: the name of the cat in question is Richard. :woohoo:

19. No, nothing is worse than cat pee. At least Karo is non-aromatic.. |
|
'Richard' indeed - a likely story! :hi:

16. Drive up to the Arctic Circle. Leave your windows open. |

When the Karo freezes, chip it off with the non-barbed side of a whale harpoon. Spear a passing caribou. Roast. Garnish with frozen Karo chips. Serves 12.
:applause: (<=====added on edit for extra fun!)

17. It's water soluble so just put a towel with warm watter on it and allow |
|
it to soften then rum with the towel. Takes a little time but should all come out.
