Removing Shoe Polish from Carpet

To get black shoe polish out of beige carpet, use Goof Off but saturate the cloth and dab on affected area. It works!

Source: I read the back of the Goof Off can and followed directions.

RE: Removing Shoe Polish from Carpet

I had this problem once. I used Dawn (Because it absorbs oil) to shampoo it and a lot came out. If you need to do it again. You could also try club soda and salt. Saturate the place with club soda, and then use slat to suck it up into a cloth. (09/26/2009)
