Things You'll Need:
- Laundry detergent
- Clean cloth or towel
-
Step 1
Sop up as much of the paint as possible by blotting the area with a soft, clean, dry cloth if the paint is not dry. Do not scrub or push the paint around the area as this will only cause it to spread and work its way deeper into the fibers of the carpet.
-
Step 2
Fill the sink or a bucket with lukewarm water and add a scoop of powdered laundry detergent. Be sure to make sure that the laundry detergent does not have bleach in it or it may fade your carpet if it isn't white.
-
Step 3
Dip a cloth into the solution and wring it out thoroughly.
-
Step 4
Place the towel directly on the stained area and allow it to sit for at least two hours.
-
Step 5
Remove the cloth and allow the carpet to dry. It may be helpful to set a fan nearby to speed the drying process along.
-
Step 6
Vacuum the area once it is completely dry to fluff the fibers back up and revive the carpet.
