    Nail vrnish remover will work on the door but it probably lift a small layer of paint too, I think you will probably just be as well to repaint the door or the mark??????? As for your carpet...good luck! Thats gonna be harder....is it a 'fluffy' carpet or a hard wearing one? If its fluffy like a bedroom carpet you can cut the top layer of fluff off and hopefully you have off cuts still (?) then shave/cut the fresh and stick down (I haven't tried this but read it on here a few months back) Nail varnish remover moves everything you can think of but that could be the colour of your carpet too?????

    Good luck and all the best xxx

    hi
    if nail varnish remover doesnt work try using a really smooth sandpaper to take the top layer of paint off. it beats painting the whole door!
  • Use T CUT car accessory shops sell it ( or brasso ) on your door sparingly .

    Sorry can't give advice on the carpet, try giving carpet cleaners a call !



    Hope you don't post again with =
