Anyone know how to get paint out of carpet?

im cleaning my room.


and i thought i had picked up all my paint tubes.


but alas, a green acrylic tube was hiding and i stepped on it and now its all over my carpet.


i've used some things around the house to get it out.


but it's still there.


though not as bad.


but uh yeah its right in the middle of my room so i can't just throw something over it.


anyone have some tricks up their sleeves?Anyone know how to get paint out of carpet?
if its still wet you can just wash it out with water.Anyone know how to get paint out of carpet?
Whatever you do DONT let it dry. Even if you have a keep a wet rag on it while you're figuring out what to do.





Acrylic is water based or oil based? I think its water based, so you should be able to get it out with a product called Quick 'n Brite. Get it at walmart. Its pretty much the best all around cleaner I've ever used. Soap will never come out of the carpet. Don't use any kind of detergent except for maybe commercial carpet cleaner. However the Quick 'n Brite is much better.





If its oil based, you're going to have to use something that cuts oil like turpentine and I don't know if that will take the color out of the carpet.
Hi..i would try hand cleaner like the mechanics use. It is cheap and can be bought at Walmart or Canadian tire. Rub it on, let sit for a half hour, then wash as usual. I use it for all kinds of stains including grease and rust.

Scrape up what you can neatly.


Lay an old towel over the paint and pat it until you can't get any more up.


DAB the rest with ammonia ( windex)


hopefully there will be no stain
you can try turpentine, but be careful, it might discolour the carpet.
my suggestion is paint the carpet green. its a solution and risky and artsy
I heard Avon skin so soft helps. call a rep and find out for sure before you buy it. Good Luck.
use goof off or goo gone. goof off works better.
You could try rubbing alcohol
toothpaste
