How do you remove dried semi-gloss latex paint from carpet?

once it is dried the only way we could remove it was by taking an old towel and putting it over it, then ironing the towel (while its over the paint) which remoistens the paint. Then you can use a strong carpet cleaner product to pull it out. This also works on wax except you wont need a carpet cleaning product, the wax will stick to the towel or the hot surface.How do you remove dried semi-gloss latex paint from carpet?
If it's plush carpet, and the paint is just on the top, try using scissors to cut off the paint

How do you remove dried semi-gloss latex paint from carpet?
There is this ';miracle'; product called ';GOO-GONE'; that you can find in the cleaning section of your local supermarket. If it doesn't get all of the paint off, when it's dry, try scraping it with your nail to get it off. I've just redone 3 rooms in my house and paint was flying everywhere... these are the things I've tried. Good Luck!!
