There is nothing more challenging to clean from carpets fibers than paint. Paint has many different chemicals that makes it a very strong substance to clean from carpets, and normal carpet cleaning chemicals won't even touch it. On certain type of synthetic carpets and area rugs, some Castle Rock homeowners have found that the store bought carpet cleaning  product called Goof-Off has worked well in effort to help remove paint. There have been some homeowners who have tried paint thinner to remove the paint, others have tried citrus based products, However  the use of these store bought carpet cleaning products, one has to be very careful not to overuse the product. If you saturate a chemical in the carpets  too much this can compromise  the backing of the carpet and it may cause damage to come apart from the carpet latex, and will cause buckling and  or ripples where the carpet cleaning products was used. Also the products have negatively alter a carpets ph balance. This may not be correctable unless you have that area cut out and patch in a new piece which will require extra carpet and may just replace one eye sore with another.

So when it comes to paint, and especially if you have spilled a large amount first thing you want to do is call a professional carpet cleaning company like TLC Carpet Care in Castle Rock Co. In the mean time don't allow the carpet to dry. You can first start flushing out as much of the paint as possible without spreading it.  A wet and dry vac will sometimes may help. Extract as much of the solid paint that you can, you may have to repeat this several times, because paint is very concentrated. If complete removal of the paint is not possible, then perhaps calling a professional carpet cleaner like TLC Carpet Care is the best thing to do.  

One additional thing is while your waiting on the carpet cleaning company to arrive put a wet towel over the stain to prevent he paint from drying, Once its dried the paint stain will become permanent. 

If you get paint on a wool or oriental area rug, don't attempt to remove the paint at all using the products we mentioned. Wool is a natural fiber, and many of these solvents will remove the natural oil in the  wool and ruin the wool rug and could  cause the colors to bleed as well.
