You could try a citrus solvent to remove w/o hurting the carpet. I'd pour it over a cloth and let it soak awhile into the carpet fibers before attempting to lift, rub or scrub. Might need to keep reapplying and setting awhile until you get it all lifted. Good Luck!
where do I buy the product and what is the brand name. As I really need to get that black out of my carpet. Thanks for your help,
You will have to be very careful with any method you decide to use. It is very important to follow directions exactly as stated.
If following this link, be very sure to heed the warning, as doing anything differently could damage your carpet.
If you still have stains after completing all steps, then you may have to try a commercial product like Dry Cleaning Solvent or
Citrus Solvent.
If that is necessary, it would be best to go to a hardware store to purchase. If you can go to an Ace or True Value hardware store, they will have someone to help you find what you need.
Home Depot or Lowes will also have it but getting knowledgeable help is sometimes more difficult.
I, personally, would follow the directions from online first.
You will have to start with using something like a spoon to remove the excess 'black rubber'.
It can be a long process so check out this link as it is very detailed.
Please remember to place your desktop computer on some sort of board or even a heavy cloth if it has to set on the floor.
It is not a good idea to set it on the floor as it will attract a great amount of dust and will have to be cleaned every couple of months to keep it from running hot.
