How can I get green wall paint out of my plush light colored carpet?

Answer 1

First off see if the paint is a Latex or oil. How long has it been there. Try using a product called GOOF OFF or OOPS. You should be able to find them at your local paint store.

Answer 2

if it is dry[sounds like it is] you will need to get a dull razor blade or butter knife and scrape lose paint off
if it is already dried into the carpet depends on what the base is
water based paint get one of those new machines used for spot removal...
the one you sit on the spot and it removes it.
looks like a vacuum cleaner
commercials are funny
probaby better than buying a whole new carpet.
My son burned a hole in his carpet with a lamp once
we removed the section[ square and replaced it with a piece of the carpet we had saved for such things .It was well placed and you could not tell it was ever ruined..
