How do you get paint stains out of a wool rug?

After purchasing a used Oiental rug that I was told had scattered stains and had to be cleaned, I found that some of the scattered stains appear to be paint. My carpet cleaners could not remove the stains. Is there any other method to remove these stains from a wool rug?

    You could try to trim the fibers of the rug area where there is paint. Before trimming, try to remove some of the dried paint using your finger nails. Make sure to cut it very lightly, so it is not obvious that those areas were trimmed. This is probably your best hope.
