Paint and carpets just don’t go together unless you’re taking an art class and intended to mix the two. In other words, if you dribbled paint on a carpet during a job or one of your children was working on a project and accidentally spilled water-based paint on the rug, there are ways to get it out without a permanent stain.
However, what if latex paint fell on the carpet and dried before you noticed or were able to deal with it properly? As is obvious there is little chance of finding a way to remove large spills but when it comes to smaller ones there’s a glimmer of hope.
Latex paint has a different chemical make than oil-based paint, which is much more difficult to remove from carpet, wet or dry.
What you’ll need: clean white cloths or a lot of paper towels, latex gloves, possibly goggles and a mask; a bucket, warm water; putty knife and other scraping tools.
The first thing to do when it comes to dry latex paint is see how much of it you can scrape off. There are different tools you could use from screw drivers to putty knives. The most important thing, though, if you’re trying to save the carpet from the paint is don’t ruin the fibers in the process. Be careful, try and use precision, and have a great deal of patience.
Once you’ve exhausted this step there are several options.
Finally, in the worst case scenario where paint remains or a stain is evident it may be time to call a carpet cleaning professional.
