Help. Please! (Nail polish in carpet)?


Question:My two year old daughter spilled RED nail polish on my off white carpet. I poured hot water on it scrubbed with cleaners nothing is helping... I have to move by August and i have got to get this out before then. (It is in the middle of the living room)

Answers:
When I was painting my daughter's room, I accidentally spilled quite a bit of it on her carpet. I was able to remove it with Super Clean. It's in the automotive section of Walmart. I think its intended purpose is to clean tires. Anyway, spray a liberal amount of it on the stain. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Then go over it with a carpet cleaner. That has always worked for me on the toughest stains.


Acytone (finger nail polish remover) will take it off. Just let it soak in acytone for a while then use a steam cleaner or carpet scrub to remove the acytone polish mix.
Use nail polish remover. Or, use bleach.
Take cuticle scissors and carefully snip the carpet away where the polish is. You could also try nail polish remover a bit on the top.
Just wondered if you had any luck with that? I did the same thing last night..and I'm not even two! Ugh!!!

Thanks!
