I did an aftermarket carpet in my 88 civic, and it was pretty good and not too hard to trim up, but definitely didn't like how it bubbled in some areas and didn't fit nearly as good as oem. I will donthis next time for sure. I think its worth however getting it professionally cleaned and steamed cleaned with industrial equipment. The cleaner it is, the better the paint sticks. I like how you used a garden sprayer. Good idea

Amazing 💪🏼

Good work!

Good info . Thanks for sharing

Looks good! Things I've learned over the years is start with a pack of powder with 2 gallons of water and 1 cup white vinegar and use that mix as a "primer" next you can switch to a bottle to get it black black. When done I suggest setting the dye with vinegar and then rinse the pad again. I have had mats bleed onto my shoes in higher temps..not Everytime but a couple times my shoe soles have turned black 😅

RIT works but I would spray some type of fabric sealer. The paint fades off when you step on it with wet shoes or spills. I went with black fabric spray on my ej1 this time see if it holds up better..

Make sure u double coat for better results let it dry for 2-3 days I did the same on my single cab works like a charm

Giancarlo! thanks a lot dude! Yeah, for something so inexpensive and just requiring some prep work in cleaning it, it’s so worth while. I only wiped in the dye after the last coat. After all three bottles were sprayed down on it the carpet got more saturated with the dye, you know. So only at the end did I feel it was necessary to wipe the dye in to the fiber but see how it goes for you. Maybe you’ll feel you want to do it after each coat. Send me some pics on IG if you end up doing it man.

Hey does the dye come out if you extract?

Hi, man! Really great result, amazing to see. But how does the coat last through the time? Did you have any issues with cleaning or wearing?

I would have done that but my fibers on my carpet was gone so I just wanted to replace it I did do it to my other civic cleaned it really good and used dupi color carpet paint came out great

Does it need to be rinsed back off? And does it bleed if it better wet?

Does the black colour rub off? Like how durable is the dye? l have read everywhere online, only wool or nylon carpet can be dyed and I believe all these modern carpets are all not dyeable, so concerned that the dye will rub off and make a mess everywhere. Any updates on how it's looking now would be great

Now that it’s been done for almost a year, can you provide an update year review on how it’s held up, etc? Thanks!

what kind of carpet cleaner are you using (make and model)?

I think I'ma take this route I got a few places to stitch up but this looks like the cheapest option so lil investment there's no reason not to. The trick to cut those carpets is using a hot tool like a pipe that's been torched

How well did it hold up 2y later

I used black Rite dye to do my auto carpet. How do you treat it so it doesn’t bleed off? After 24 hours, I rubbed a white paper towel on it and the towel had black on it. And when I rubbed a wet paper towel, it bleed onto it a lot.

After taking the carpet out of the vehicle, and vacuuming it, take it to a laundromat and wash it once or twice in a big front-loader washing machine (the ones that large comforters are washed in). Use some odor eliminating detergent during the wash cycle. Then dry it gently on low heat. 🎇🌴
