judyvega Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 I know Michi had this problem awhile back - hopefully she'll see this thread and respond - if not, you can send her a PM and find out what she did - I did a quick search, didn't find it, but it may have been in the old forum.

mystical_angel1219 Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Oh man- get those dogs outside.. quick if it's in their paws.Hopefully you have some Goo Gone. This will remove the dye completely, but you have to do it immediately for best results. Spray and wipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PamR Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 DeSolvit will erase the dye off of almost every surface. You can find it in the cleaning isle. Should it not remove the dye from the grout, since grout is pourous, try pouring some straight bleach on the area & letting it sit a bit. Hope this helpsPam R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacien Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 I agree with Pam. I have done my share with grout and bleach has worked. I am not sure if they still make those clorox bleach pens but those worked great for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charity4candles Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Clorox clean up will also do it. I just spray it on and let it sit. It will go away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mona Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 If bleach or cleanser doesn't work, maybe this will - http://www.harrietcarter.com/Detail.cfm?pth=33&Cat=2∏=5607&sr=60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
