I need to learn how to Dye Carpet. Can't afford to change it out right now and have heard it could be dyed. Has anyone ever done this? Reply  (Gary Carter) (Ref:0523)

Answer Dying Carpets: I am fixing up a mobile home to sell and the carpet are stained. I have dyed many things ,living in N.C on 200 remote acres Living so far away from town I had to do many things I never would have tried. I had a ugly light mauve carpet, ruined I might add from past renters, I had a area on property filled with Polk plants, since I had used the berries ( be cautious Polk can be extremely poisons) on other fabrics I thought could not make it much worse, so pick a small bucket ( coffee cans worth of the berries rendered it down by heating to a full boil and added a 1/4 cup vinegar to it , put in my rug shampoo and off I went, I used a much berries as needed, and it turned out a medium mauve and looks much better, you can use many plants, Grass is good too, Rid dye will take on some carpet if you add vinegar with it. Personally if its got real wood under it I rip the nasty stuff out and sand it then stain and get some cool area rugs. Good luck, -- Mesha  Mesha Putnam Reply  Jan 24 2006
