Here are various strategies people have used to clean urine stains on mattresses.
1. Use the product “Urine Gone.” Works well for pet or people stains/odors.
2. One part white vinegar mixed with 2 parts dishwashing liquid. Blot as much urine as you can with paper towels. Apply mixture generously on stain with wet sponge or cloth. Let sit for half an hour. Using a clean cloth, blot as much of the soap mixture as possible. Sprinkle wet area liberally with cornstarch and vacuum away when dry.

Coffee stains are all too common. Often they occur early in the morning when the coffee drinker is not yet even fully awake and more prone to clumsiness and spilling. Unfortunately, this also means that the spiller is also usually not in the mood to abandon the morning routine and begin immediately cleaning a coffee stain. This is regrettable because the longer a coffee stain is allowed to sit, the more difficult it will be to clean. It is important to keep this in mind when tending to a coffee stain; the sooner you begin cleaning the stain site, the better.
Before applying any stain removing solution to the area, attempt to blot up as much of the coffee as is possible. The more coffee you absorb using a rag or paper towel, the less of it will mix in the fabric you are trying to clean and the easier the stain will be to treat.
