Q:I have a medium blue area rug currently and i want to dye it to be a spring green color. Getting a professional or getting a new carpet is pretty much out of the question. I've heard that you could bleach it first then dye it? Whats the best way for me to go about this?

Q:I have a new beige carpet that is about 1 year old. I have some stains from a dog. I used Woolite Heavy Traffic and vacuum but it really did not work. The carpet looks darker than the rest of the carpet. What can I use to make the carpet clean again?

try rinsing after cleaning. Use clear water. The soap left a residue so the carpet got dirtier faster.

Q:I was at the yard today and one of the owners was talking about one of these rugs, and I can't put my finger on the name of it. Just wanted to read up a little bit about it.All I know is it begins with a B and lots of people ride with it still on the horse and just put a saddle over it.Any suggestions? :s

The trick is to flatten the rug out on the floor the opposite direction up, carry the front of the rug the two fringe of the neck beginning. Swing the rug up and over the pony so as that the rug lands the basically right part up. This needs to be finished on the basically right velocity so as that the rug sails over the back of the pony and lands interior the middle... think of of a matador's cape.

Q:What raw materials do you need to make a carpet?

It is easy to become flat. Acrylic?acid fiber the abrasion resistance of acrylic acid fiber is not as good as nylon. Polypropylene fiber polypropylene fiber has good abrasion resistance, flame resistance and low price, fiber organic. Except for a few carpets, it can be used with high efficiency. Jute jute is mainly used as backing material. The process of spinning include Anso and Timbrelle, according to the characteristics of the yarn and hand feel, so it is particularly suitable for the production of carpets. Viscose fiber the elasticity of viscose fiber is not as good as other fibers, artificial fibers begins to spread, finally use fiber to make roving. All carpet fibers have distinctive features: Natural fiber and artificial fiber; 4, but it has a good expansibility and flexibility. Soak a few months after the harvest of coconut shell, but the elasticity and abrasion resistance is not as good as other fibers, Roving increases the strength of single strand yarn through stretching and twisting in spinning machine, two or more yarns twist together, but after the fire it will leave a scar: Antwerp strong (ANTRON). This light yellow fiber is woven into a yarn. Silk In addition to fine handmade craft carpet, all carpet are made from crude fiber through processing, such as tearing and combing until they become straight. Nylon is usually added to the wool to improve the abrasion resistance of the fabric. Silk is seldom used in the production of carpets.

Q:Hi everyone, how do i take a plain white area rug and make a black floral design on it on parts of the rug? like on two corners and maybe a swirl or two in middle ? i know ive seen people use templates and literarly spray or paint over template to make design. then use a sealer or something i dont know :( help thank you

I did a design on an outdoor sisal type rug and it came out really nice. I used spray paint and sealed it with polyurethane. You can get the templates at a craft store or make one yourself. There might be a problem if there is a high pile on the carpet. The design might not have clean edges. You could try one section of it on the back of the rug. Or get a carpet remanent with a pile like you have on your white carpet to try. If the design does not have clear edges you might be able to touch it up with a tiny paintbrush. I don't think a dye (like Rit Dye) would work. It would run and make a mess. I think you would have to stick to a surface treatment only-like spray paint.

Q:What is a Sisal Rug?

Q:I want to redo my basement but getting new carpet is so expensive! Right now I have a really ugly green carpet with red and light yellowish squares. My kids want to make it in to a more loungey basement so the carpet is gonna be really hard to work with. Is there a much cheaper alternative to carpet or even any ideas as to how we can blend it in or make it work? We really dont want to use the colors in the carpet for anything in the basement. The basement is very very big so even semi-cheap things might be expensive. Thank you!

i like to go with just a painted concrete floor, then you don't have the headache of recplacing carpet/laminate floor if your basement floods, unless you have tons of money and can afford nature stone. i know you said you don't have the money tho.
