Hi guys,

Painting a radiator in my sons bedroom and its just dribbled onto a new blue carpet. Can I use white spirits to shift radiator paint or will it take the colour out of the carpet too?thanks in advance

Personally I wouldn't use white spirit as you run the risk.

Have a professionally deal with it!! ;D

Risked it, as getting a sensible answer from you lot was like watching paint dry. ;D

All you need now is something to get the white spirit out.  :D
It's not expensive, you just can't afford it.
