Stanley’s Orange Wonder

Yesterday we visited Hubs’ parents for church and then lunch.  Long story short: E drizzled vegetable soup down her hall, all over her beige carpet.  My mother-in-law had taken the big kids to a nearby playground.  So my sister-in-law and I scrambled to find something with which to clean up the tomato-y mess.  She found an old bottle of Orange Miracle by Stanley.  I was not very hopeful.  Tomato juice and white carpet just don’t make a great couple.  Wouldn’t you know, it worked!  Just a dab on a moist cloth and voila!  No sign whatsoever of tomato juice ever being spilled on that carpet. 

I had to come home and look this stuff up.  The bottle she had was old, and Stanley must have since changed the name to Orange Wonder.  Note: What we used put off a very strong citrusy odor, so good ventilation is required.

Here’s what the website says:
