Special precautions must be taken when attempting to remove wood glue from a carpet, which can be damaged without the proper cleaning materials. Wood glue can be easily dissolved within a matter of minutes when the right method is used.
Things You Will Need
-
Heat 1 cup of white vinegar on the stove. Allow it to reach a hot temperature just before it begins to simmer.
-
Pour the vinegar into a clean, plastic spray bottle. Ensure that it works properly by spraying a small amount into a sink or rag.
-
Spray a generous amount of the vinegar onto the wood glue stain on your carpet. Allow it to soak the residue for at least 30 minutes before removal.
-
Lightly scrub the glue with a microfiber cloth to loosen it. Avoid using excessive force, as the vinegar should allow the softened glue to be lifted with ease.
-
Steam clean the affected area or use an appropriate household detergent for a thorough removal.
