Take a piece of clean cloth or a special piece of wiping towel (you can purchase them from near store) and mop up the split so that it doesn’t spread out. If the stain isn’t oily, you may use water only to mop, but if it’s oily, you should use dish soap with a very small amount of water. You will have a better chance to avoid the stain from spreading out and affecting wider areas which are still clean.
Vacuum Cleaning
