Fine powdered construction chalk used on cord to make lines on flat surfaces
(for cutting, truing, what have you) inadvertently got on my 4 year old
deep-piled carpet. It's water-soluble... so it appears. However, in
discovering what it is, I used water and now it's deeper down the pile.
They started as two dark specs. Then I took a wet rag to one and it turned
bright reg. That's when I realized what it was. Must have been on a cuff of
my work pants as I passed in my stocking feet.
Any idea of how to get this put? I used a Green Machine but stopped short
thinking I'd just make a liquid that would go all the way to the mat. Aside
from a wet towel and careful rubbing (synthetic fiber tufts) I really don't
know what else to do.
