Took off the umbrella trim piece, and while that was the least of my worries at first, it's turned out to be the most stubborn.

Drenched the carpet with lots of clean water and a stiff brush with wetvac after each flush.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Yeah, not on purpose. Home Depot messed up my paint order, so it's almost a full can. Tipped over on the way and it was panic city. Mat is OK. Drenched the carpet with lots of clean water and a stiff brush with wetvac after each flush. Looks OK so far. Took off the umbrella trim piece, and while that was the least of my worries at first, it's turned out to be the most stubborn. Even though this is latex, the exterior stuff is tougher to remove, from anything. Stupid, stupid, stupid!!!
By the way, the orientation looks fine from my iPad, so my apologies if it appears flipped.
I once spilt a sherry trifle whilst breaking hard in a Lancia Beta Coupe, it had those bright orange material seats. Forever more stinking of booze whilst driving. Explain it to the law at 2am....
It was my fault. I tapped the lid with a hammer all around, but I guess it didn't seat totally. And then I didn't properly support it, or bag it. I was just making a quick trip!
your fault may not fully be the case! as could the temp warm up in the car as it has been proven that warm air expands in the gap above the paint and can push the lid off under pressure. This is why new cans often have lid clips that you have to prize off with a driver.
"You should have chosen semi-gloss. Would have looked better."
HaHa! Funny you should say that, because it WAS flat, but was SUPPOSED to be semi-gloss. That was why I was returning it!
All is good. I'm pretty picky and even so it looks good to me.
If it makes you feel any better, I barfed on my car yesterday. Just the door sill. But tuna sandwich, which may not be as bad as house paint, but it sure AF smells worse.
Holy schnikes! I need to take a nap now. I spilt battery acid in my beloved, but by then, POS Escort, but if paint tipped over in my unicorn, I'd need heavy sedation. New house rule- no trips to Home Depot or Lowe's in The Unicorn. Good job cleaning it up. Hope it'll quickly be a funny story to share with friends and family...T
