Does WD-40 Remove Ink Stains from Carpets?

If you want to try this method it is best to test an area of carpet in a closet to ensure that no damage will happen. Take your WD-40 and spray it on the ink spot. You want to give the spray several minutes to work into the ink and loosen it from the carpet fibers. After it has had time to sit you can use a clean rag to dab away at the spot which will start to remove the ink. You can then follow up with a soapy water mixture to clean up the rest of the mess.
