Poor you - I’m part of the ‘dropped a dark grey nailvarnish on the carpet we haven’t finished paying off yet’ brigade so feel your pain!

my first thought was hair dye stripper.
my second thought was if you have off cuts and you can do a patch job.

I just put bleach on a cotton pad. Leave it on the patch for at least half an hour. The pale teal vinyl in my bathroom is stain free despite years of drooping red dye on it.
