Question:

Carpet dying?

For all carpet experts....I accidentally spilled bleach on a small section of carpet in my apartment. I cut out the affected area and tried to patch it with a piece from the closet but the colors dont match. How does the carpet dying process work? I called several places and they suggested I do it myself since they no longer do that sort of work.

Answer:

Try cleaning with Oxy carpet cleaner by Woolite. Wife spilled beet juice on our new lt. beige berber, blotted up most of the juice, then nuetralized the rest with the ozyclean...can't see the difference, or use Rit dye in a similar color to the original.
Do you have a steam cleaner? If you do, fill the steam cleaner with water bleach steam clean the whole carpet. That should even it out. I'm interested to hear what other answers you get cause I had a friend spill red wine on my off white carpets that was what I was told to do. Good luck!
