As you know this is a very stubborn and messy stain (unlike candle wax) so it's best to have a professional carpet cleaner come up to try and get it out. Be sure you tell them it's a wool rug. If they can't get the spot out then phone a carpet repair place and they can fix it. I had a party once and someone burned a hole in my carpet with a cigarette and said nothing. I got a carpet repair man up and I couldn't believe what a good job he did and you couldn't even tell where the burn was.

My cousin, her friend and I were having a sleepover new years eve. The friend spilled a little pink nail polish on my cousins new light brown carpet. We looked stuff up on the internet and found nail polish remover worked great. It did not work out for us. We also found vinegar worked it did not either. Then we found out window cleaner worked. We tried it and the stain was gone! It took a while to get out but it was worth the time.

I had a big problem when i discovered black nail varnish on our baige carpet. I thought it wouldn't come out, but with some research i found out is was possible to remove the stain. As the solutions they recommended to use we didnt have , we thought we could use vanish power foam, it is not meant to lift stains but we found it reacted to the stain quite well. After nearly an hour of scrubbing with a toothbrush the stain was finaly lifted.

Hope this helps.

use nail polish remover,water,cleaning stuff for a carpet or call a carpet company any of those would work

Yes! getting a nailpolish stain can be removed by first dabbing the carpet with a non-acetone nailpolish remover. IF that does not completely remove the stain, then spray some Windex on the stain and rub with a clothe.

This just happened to me! Bright purple nail polish on tan carpet and it was already dry and crusted. It took me about twenty minutes and about a half bottle of nail polish remover. But apply quite a bit onto the area and dab and pick in an upward motion at it. Don't scrub until the stain is almost removed or it will spread. Also I used pet stain remover on it towards the end and voila!

I'm not sure if it also removes color from the rug, so you might want to try in a corner or closet where the rug is not usually seen first, but you could try nail polish remover.

What can you use to get black nail polish out of a carpet?

You can try to use non acetone nail polish remover on it, wipe dry and repeat. Acetone will eat away at the carpet fibers. It probably won't come completely out of the carpet. For the best result use this method. 1. Dab with nail polish remover, do not scrub it. 2. Sponge the stain with a household dry-cleaning fluid following the maker's instructions. Do NOT soak. Open windows and air the room thoroughly.
