OOPS, Paint Drips on Carpet
by Rob D
(Knoxville, Tn)
As careful as I am when painting, invariably I get a few paint spatters or drips on the carpet. As long as it isn't a major spill, its better to let the drips dry where they fall. Later you can go back and with a sharp scissors, trim off the carpet fibers along with the drip.
This is sure better than smearing paint into an even bigger mess trying to clean it up with a damp sponge. Just don't clip off more of the carpet than you need to.
