I need some tips right away!! ....please. I can of white latex spilled in my trunk about two hours ago. I heard the box that it was in turn over and I was out of the car quickly and started soaking it up with my golf towels. I than ran across the street and got a bunch of wet papertowels and push up and down on the spot to try and bring up as much as possible.... and did the same with dry towels

I have a spot about 1 square foot. What can I do to get rid of it

Thanks in advance for your help

 

This is from the following website.

BECAREFUL AND CONSIDER CAREFULLY BEFORE FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS.

"Latex Caulk/Adhesive spill:

Detergent Solution - Mix one fourth (1/4) teaspoon of a liquid dishwashing detergent per one (1) cup of lukewarm water. NEVER USE A STRONGER CONCENTRATION! Thorough rinsing is necessary to remove detergent residues that may cause rapid soiling. It may be necessary to rinse with warm water several times to completely remove residues. (See Residue Precautions.)Care should be used in selecting a detergent. Never use a laundry detergent of any type; because laundry detergents may contain optical brighteners (fluorescent dyes) that dye the fiber. Do not select an automatic dishwashing detergent because many contain bleaching agents that destroy dyes and some fibers.


Warm Water - Lukewarm tap water should be used in most cases to rinse the cleaning solutions from the fiber. Failure to completely rinse the solutions from the fiber may cause accelerated soiling.


Spot Removal Kit - Available from most carpet retail stores. Follow directions closely! Some spot removal kits contain: (A) a detergent solution and (B) a stain-resist solution. Use of the (B) solution prior to the complete removal of the spill may cause a permanent stain. Other spot removal kits may contain a dry extraction cleaning compound that can be used effectively for most common household stains.


Ammonia Solution - Mix one (1) tablespoon of household ammonia per cup of water. Please note: Be aware that ammonia, if used improperly, can cause a color change. Be sure to test a hidden area.


Call a Professional - Professional cleaners have the ability and the equipment to use more aggressive cleaning solutions to remove stubborn spills. Always consider consulting a professional cleaner regarding any spot removal question. BECKETT’S 770-928-4805"

 

I personally would only use warm water and no chemicals.

 

I agree 100% and it should come right out.

 

is dried into the trunk fabric will it still come out with just the warm water. Also I will not be able to get to it for another three hours.

 

you know, when i first saw this the title: horrible accident, i thought i was going to see pics of a wrecked rl. =P

 

Get the trunk tray and just cover it up?

 

no trunk tray? invest in one - it's worth it

 

Worked a lot of it out. I am ordering the mat from H&A
