The best way to clean up a mess with paint spilled on a carpet is to blot the stain with a paper towel or clean cloth to remove as much of the paint as possible. Then, use a dab of mild detergent and warm water to rub over the paint stain. Blot to remove the excess moisture, then leave to dry completely. It is also important to test the detergent or cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of the carpet first to make sure the color is not affected.
