umm...hey anyone know how to get Americolor air spray dye out of carpet?
Try using this spray called Folex. Wal-Mart sells it, but Home Depot carries it cheaper. It took grease stains out of my carpet, it may work on coloring---Good luck!
Try GOOP...get it at walmart or the local dollar store. Its a canister, plastic...used for mechanics hands to remove grease. I use it on my wash for troubled spots. and My carpet when I steam clean.
works great...blot the spot, let it sit for a bit, and then go back and gently rub off. let me know if this works for you. good luck.
oxyclean is great. My husband turns everything pink or leaves a pen in his pants and washes the clothes come out with ink marks everywhere. He will take the clothes and put them in a tub with hot water and oxyclean and let it soak and everybit if the pen marks comes out. I have done this to a wine stain in the carpet too and it worked like a dream.
My daughter got americolor dark blue green gel color (grabbed it when I wasn't looking) all over the floor (tile so that was ok) all over her pink sweater, hands, everywhere. I was sure that sweater was done for - but I just srayed it with shout and dropped it in a bucket of oxy (and it was the generic oxy sun cleaner from dollar general) - and when I took it out the next day to wash it - all the color was gone. I didn't even scrub it. I'd make up a spray bottle of oxy and water - soak it, let it sit a bit - blot with a real absorbent towel and repeat.
Good luck!! (I can only imagine)
I hope I'm not oo late... you there??? you still alive???? LOL
my husband says the best thing he has ever used and has gotten many stains out of carpet is polish remover, but it has to be the yellow with acetone in it, it will not hurt the carpet and it will lift right up. Even if its been there a while.
Good Luck!!!! and please let us know if it came out!!!!
Rubbing Alcohol?
My kids did this in our study (gasp!) with navy food coloring. I steam cleaned to carpet, but just ended up having to rearrange the furniture to cover it.
Sorry!
yes, nail polish remover, he swears by it!!!! just make sure that is is the yellow with acetone one. but he says it will work!!!
Forgot to say...... YIPPIE!!! your still ALIVE!!!!!!!!
he said to pour a little on a wash cloth and blot and you will see the stain to lift. then to just rub until the stain is removed. he said you dont need to do anything else, the carpet will be fine. Best of luck!!!
Resolve deep clean got most of it out with the help of my steam cleaner. I live over seas so many of the suggestions I just can't use because I can't buy them here(but thank you for helping). But I'm going to try the nail polish tonight.
oh yeah and why am I still alive? Because my husband while in Thailand this weekend pushed one of his buddies in the pool, said buddy had the brand new Zoom mp3 player in his pocket. So we're now out $300 to replace it. He didn't have a leg to stand on.
Unlucky hubby and lucky you!! did you manage to get the stain out? i once dropped a full bottle of red liquid colouring on a white carpet, i tried all the hints and tips, and nothing took it out, one product , A foam product just went bright pink and then spread into an even bigger stain! ha! i ended up getting rid of the stain by buying myself a new carpet hahaha! hope you find something !
I took oil paint out of my carpet with Dawn dish washing detergent. Good Luck!
Go to home depot, there is a product called "Goof off" it works on carpet, it took dry paint off my carpet, this product really stinks but the smell goes away after a little bit... I have really light carpet & you can't even tell where the stain/stains were...
No need to panic, this stuff will work...

OH MAN that's gotta hurt!!! I'll bet your hubby was just kicking himself down with that one. I don't have the Zoom, but do have an MP3.
I'll take a stained carpet and toss a throw rug over that one any day!
Gotta have my tunes! ![]()
