For wet playdough, scrape up excess immediately without rubbing it in. Let the remaining dough dry completely. Once hardened, scrape or brush it away, then vacuum. For stubborn residue, press fresh playdough onto the carpet to lift the old bits, or apply a warm, soapy cloth and scrub gently.Quick Removal Steps If it's wet: Don't rub or scrub, as this drives the dough deeper into the carpet fibers. Use a spoon or a butter knife to gently scrape up as much as possible. If it's dry: Wait for the dough to dry completely. Once it's crunchy, scrape it off using a butter knife or the bottom of Mega Block, then vacuum the remaining particles.The "Dough-on-Dough" trick: Playdough sticks to itself. Take a fresh or clean ball of playdough and firmly press and lift it over the stuck-on pieces to pull them out of the carpet.
