How do you clean rose art modeling clay out of carpet?

Answer 1

Being the mother of 3 home schooled boys..well..accidents happen. A few weeks ago, I came across some modeling clay that had been ground into the carpet, underneath where the ladder goes to the top bunk of our bunk bed set..bright green modeling clay that had came off of a project that was being shown to an older brother..and no one notified me of the mess... Anyway, I called Rose Art and asked them what to do...was placed on hold because the very nice gentleman that was answering didn't know..he came back about 5 minutes later and apologized for the wait..but had an answer. Use Canola Oil to get it out of the carpet. He didn't have any ideas as for getting the color out tho'. So I tried using a little Canola Oil on a paper towel and guess what? It worked!!! The color remained so I used some nail polish remover in the same manner and all if it is gone! We are renting a house that has the light beige carpet in it..and now you can't see any remnants of the disaster!!

Answer 2

Oils... Canola, Olive, Vegetable etc... Will remove non-drying molding clay from carpet. I would then back that up with a soapy water bowl mixed with laundry detergent and oxy clean if you have it on hand, to remove any color remains.
