How Do I Get Paint Out Of My Carpet?
The paint is dried, I’ve tried everything that I can think of, it’s light blue and white paint on a dark blue carpet.

Try paint thinner or finger nail polish remover (acetone). Once you finish, whether it works or not, you need to flush the carpet well with water. Paint thinner and acetone have extremely low flash points and even the slightest amount of static electricity may cause them to ignite. I suggest using a foaming carpet cleaner after the paint thinner.
If the thinner does not work, and the area(s) are spots and a not a large spill, use a sharp razor and scrape away at the area. You may be able to remove individual loops with the razor if needed.
Good luck!

Did you try baking soda and water? Mix some banking soad in a bowl of water and get a scrub brush and start scrubbing it. (You can also keep adding a little more banking soad directly onto the carpet as your scrubbing it.

Simple. Just use hot water and a old piece of cloth. At first just dab the paint then wipe any excess away.
Glad to help you.

If the paint is an acrylic, you can use a rotating brush cleaner. You can rent one or get a small one called Scrappy Scrubber. Use a touch of dish soap and lots of water. repeat as needed till gone.

It is most unusual to get paint out of a carpet, if you have contents insurance your best bet is to claim on that and get a new one.
