The document provides tips for removing common stains like lipstick, wine, and coffee from carpets and upholstery. For lipstick, it recommends using petroleum jelly to soak up the stain, then cleaning with water and soap. Wine stains should be rinsed with water and blotted with a towel immediately, or treated with vinegar if they have set in. Coffee stains also require immediate blotting with a towel followed by club soda or vinegar, or professional cleaning if left untreated.
