Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
- 100% Acetone
- Old towels or rags that you can throw out after
- soap and water
-
Step 1
Test a small area of carpet to make sure the acetone won't melt it. (you can find 100% pure acetone at a beauty supply store, its basically strong nail polish remover)
-
Step 2
Once you're sure it won't ruin your carpet soak the stained area with the acetone.
-
Step 3
Put a towel over the area and press straight down on it as hard as you can. You can set something heavy on it for a few minutes if you want.
-
Step 4
Repeat steps 2 and 3 until stain is gone. It may take more than one bottle of acetone to remove depending on how dark the polish is and how much is on the carpet.
-
Step 5
After the polish is gone clean the area with soap and water to remove the acetone. Set a towel over the area with weight on top to force out the moisture.
