    Do as much cleaning as you can possibly do while the surface is still damp! it's much easier to get a tough stain out if the material is still wet. Soak up as much as you can, then combine 1/2 cup of baking soda, 1/4 cup of dish soap, and 4 cups of water. Gently blot the area with your solution and then scrub it with a clean toothbrush.
