Help, I've dropped paint on my carpet

[delbel]

Any tips on how to remove a water based paint - I have scrubbed with water and most of the colour has gone, but there is still some colour left. Any suggestions gratefully received.

allow washing liquid to stay soaked in carpet for 1hr; then sop up with dry cloth.

keep scrubbi9ng , dont let it dry in , and keep diluting it , watch alll the scriubbing doesnt change the carpet colour tho


ok

meths will dissolve most emulsion paint,so provided the meths itself doesnt stain,try rubbing with a suitably moistened cloth.

Perrier or other sparkling water is great for carpet stains.

keep it wet and hire a rug doctor from homebase and that will lify it out i am sure x

Thanks for all your suggestions.
