I got acrylic paint on my rug. Can't find how to get this removed. Anyone's help will be greatly appreciated. I believe the rug is acrylic also. HELPGI2

Welcome to the forums!
Sometimes the best removal method is scraping or even sanding. Solvents like paint deglosser work well at removing latex paint but you need to use it spraringly! Goof Off or Oops may also work but all 3 of these methods might damage the carpet so it would be best to test a hidden area first.

thanks for the suggestion. I'll try the sanding by hand first, I think that may work.
