Default Upholstery Stain????

Any body know how to get Blood off white vinyl???

It never fails, every time I have to reach down and work on my engine. I manage to cut myself on something!!!! If it's not a hose clamp, it's a zip tie!!!
Now I have a blood stain that no mater what I try, doesn't come out... Any suggestions that work???
Thanks

Fantastic works but watch to avoid the stitching.

Promise not to laugh, but go to your supermarkrt or drug store and get a bottle of Hydrogen Peroxide. Yes, the stuff women use to bleach their hair. A nurse took a blood sample from me once. It bled through the bandage and got on my dress shirt. Obviously i wasn't happy. She said she could take care of it, which she did with a cotton ball saturated with some liquid. I asked her what it was-Hydrogen Peroxide. Have a bottle that has saved the day many a time. As with anything, be careful. Good Luck!

zepp cleaner and degreaser is a miaracle cleaner.

dulited clorox works well

and i bought these silly vinyl cleaner/protectant towelette wipes yesteday from west marine, they work really really well! for general cleaning did ok on dark strains but for a small new stain they'd prolly work well. they also moistorize and protect or soem ****.

H2O2 works great on blood that is freshly spilled. Not on dried blood.

try a laundry pre soaker for spot removal, blood is a protien so it can be broken down chemically with the right spot remover.
