Spotting Solutions introduces Stain Blotter Powder. Made of lightweight, absorbent particles that can absorb up to ten times their weight in liquid, the powder is designed to treat spills that can’t be cleaned up right away, like a pet accident or a knocked-over cup of coffee on the way out the door.

“It acts like a thousand tiny sponges,” says Sales Manager Lou Shepherd. “All you have to do is sprinkle it on the stain and let it dry, usually overnight, and then vacuum it up.”
