I used WD40 for paint stain removal... now how do i get rid of the stink? My whole house smells!?

Question

I needed to clean some model paint out of the carpet in my sons room, yes, you guessed it!! Anyways, I read that WD40 would work, and i didn't have anything else to try. It took 1.5 cans to do it, but it worked. Now it really stinks and there is a bit of a greasy look to the carpet as well. Would it be bad to add baking soda to the carpet? It's been days since I cleaned it. I need help!

Answer 1

it will clear up in a day or so

Answer 2

Use a carpet shampoo or Febreze in the room and it will dissipate soon.

Answer 3

Give it time it will go away on its own
