Removing Finger Nail Polish From Your Carpet

You are getting ready for your hot date with your husband and while you are making your toes pretty you spill the finger nail polish all over your carpet. What do you do? Well here is a tip that really works, I use it all the time in my clients home for removing finger nail polish from their carpet.

A few things you will need.
1. Go to your cleaning cabinet and get some Windex.
2. Get a clean white rag or towel.
3. A wet dry vac if you have one.
4. Some kind of carpet cleaner or a some water with a little dish soap in it (about a teapsoon in hot water).
First do a little test in a inconspicuous area on your carpet to check for color fastness. So if your carpet looks the same after you spray a little windex on and you do not see any transfer onto your white rag you can proceed.
Doing the Cleaning.
1. Spray a liberal amount of windex onto the problem spot and let it dwell a couple of minutes.
2. Take your towel and try blotting it up ( you should see the color of the fingernail polish start to transfer to you towel) and keep doing this until the stain is gone. You might need to do this a few times.
3. If you own a wet dry/vac or a little carpet cleaning machine do the following. Spray the area with your carpet cleaner or your mixture of water and dish soap and use your towel to work it around then rinse with some water and extract with your wet/dry vac getting the area as dry as possible.
Hopefully this helps you.
