So you were painting your living room or bedroom, and oops! You have a big puddle of paint slowly seeping into your beautiful new carpet!
No Problem, just follow these steps.
1. Cut two pieces of cardboard from a box. Use the edges of the cardboard to gather the paint.
2. Then use the pieces to form a scoop, and lift the paint back into the paint can.
3. When most of the paint has been cleared, get two buckets—one with clean water and one completely empty.
4. Soak the remaining spill with the clean water, then scrape and scoop it up with a fat spoon and put it in the empty bucket.
5. Work fast and continuously, (you need to finish before the paint dries), replenishing the clean water as necessary.
6. Rent a carpet cleaner to follow up; just be sure to keep the paint spot wet until it gets there.
