Hopefully with these steps you will be successful in getting nail polish out of your carpet. You can purchase dry cleaning fluid from home supply stores, dry cleaners, and grocery stores.


It is important that before you use any of the cleaning solutions on the carpet to test them out in an area that can not be seen before applying them to a large obvious area. It is necessary to use a white cloth rather than a colored cloth because the dye from the cloth can transfer onto the carpet making it an even bigger mess.


When you blot out the stains, keep turning the cloth so that each time you blot you are using a clean, dry sectioni to pick up the stain and the cleaning fluids from the carpet. Never rub it in! Rubbing it in can cause the stain to get deeper into the carpet, making removal harder.


Often times when people spill nail polish on their carpet, the first thing they grab is nail polish remover. This is not a good idea. Nail polish may bleach the carpet. The best way to try to get nail polish out of the carpet is by using the above steps.

Nail polish remover is the best way, be sure to pat the spot. Do not rub it, this will just push it further down into the carpet. Be sure to clean the area with plain water once the polish is gone. Only use a white rag when cleaning any spots on carpets.
