Here are two things that I know remove gum from carpet, so it may work for you:
1) Put a cube of ice directly in the area with caulk. Hopefully, it will freeze the caulk and you'll be able to remove it easily. 2) I know it sounds strange, but I've heard wd-40 will work to remove stuff from carpet (even white carpet) and not leave any stain. You may want to try it as a last resort. - Matt Small -----Original Message----- From: G [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2005 11:18 AM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: Silicon gel or caulk in carpet If the caulk has dried and is intermeshed with the carpet......i think yer out of luck. > Since this seems, strangely enough, to be not a bad place to ask > household cleaning questions, does anyone have a suggestion for the > above dilemma?
