Blue Area Rug

Colorful rug stained the cream carpet beneath it!!!!? Help!?

If there is anyone out there who has had a similar experience, I would love to hear your advice!

I have a large area rug with bright blues, pinks, etc . . . over my beige carpet. When I removed the rug, I saw that there are very faintly colors striped on my carpet. How can I get rid of this?! Thanks! Please answer if you have had success with anything similiar!

You are going to have to shampoo your carpet with a really good stain remover. I suggest using yellow ammonia. Make a mixture of 3 parts water and 1 parts ammonia, put it into a spray bottle, and spray everywhere there is a stain. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then go over it with a steam cleaner. But do not put a lot of water of the carpet with the steam cleaner, you will dilute the ammonia. You mainly just want the brush to scrub and pick up. This should work. If not, repeat, but brush by hand, without the steam cleaner. Once you can tell the stains are gone, I would go back over my carpet with a fresh smelling carpet cleaner, to remove all traces of ammonia and dye.

Help! How do I remove a dime-size stepped-on spot of Play-Doh from my nylon plush area rug? Thx. Dottievan?

I usually use Folex for spot cleaning, but I've never had to "face" bright blue Play-Doh, and I don't want to do anything which will "set" the stain in the rug. Any suggestions? I appreciate all answers, but please try not to steer my efforts in the wrong direction...the spot is right in front of a chair, so it really shows. Thanks SO much. Dottievan

http://www.hasbro.com/playdoh/ and www.mycarpetguys.com recommend you first let the gunk dry hard. Then remove as much as possible, loosen with stiff brush as needed. Vacuum crumbly bits. To clean deeper, mix mild squirt of dish soap and water, dab on. Blot dry. Neutralize with vinegar/water mix. Blot dry. Blot only, no srubbing. Repeat until stains gone. The doh should be cleaned off by then and to further lighten spot on light carpet, first test hydrogen peroxide before using on spot. No need to rinse. H. peroxide returns to water when exposed to light. No site mentioned using hot water, which could set artificial color into carpet fibre. If spot will not be removed, a tiny patch may need to be replaced with clean carpet. Be patient, the darn spot usually will come out. PS...stay away from Silly Putty. You will go silly trying to remove this rubberized stuff.
