Thank you , I swear people hate on diy, like either do it or don’t do it, try sum shit, at least it’s cheap. And it gives you something to do other than sitting on ur ass watching tv. Will be doing this soon for my gs300.

Very nice and very cool autism awareness theme as well. As a dad of two autistic sons. You made an instant fan buddy.
Dudes out cleaning carpet in the dark. Much respect!! That is a hard worker. Rare to see these days.
Dude just found you tonight watching both of your channels. Good stuff. Love how methodical you are, incredible patience, and mad skills. And the budget is right! Subscribed.
Your video popped up on my feed just in time. I was going g to throw my Integra carpet away. But after watching this, this a great way to make it look brand new for cheap. Thanks for the video man!
Great video, clear and good instructions, you did a great job,, thank you for sharing this...
WHAT ? NO WAY !!!!that’s way easier then way I been doing it . I’m gona try appreciate video G
Thank you so much for this video. That spray method is pretty smart. Gonna do my IS 350 Headliner like this since the other option would be buying the ISF headliner for ~ $1000.
Did mines bout few months earlier this year still lasting with no floor mats and me being dirt nasty low scraping my shoes across it 100% would recommend to anyone looking for a new look

looks awesome dude! I have an 83 Datsun 280ZX with cruddy old grey carpet, I am definitely going to hit it with some Rit
Much love to you, all the way from Miami FL. Love the autism awareness details and I hope you keep going 💙❤💛💚
PURPLE POWER!!! I live by this product
Lol this is so satisfying to watch! I just wanted to dye a certain area where I have salt stains that have burned in.
Thanks for this awesome video! I am inspired and mesmerized! 🤣
Nice tutorial. I think I'll be doing this in my current van project.
Thank You sir for this great vid doing to my truck this weekend.
OOOOOMMMGGGG. YOUR A GENIOUS ! Ahhh I love this. I'm like really OCD & I know like carpet cleaners aren't good enough alone, like I mean their good, but not for really dirty stuff exp like an old used car carpet that had previous owners and stuff but OMG the pressure hose and the purple stuff and the broom scrubber thingy THEN the carpet cleaner, WOW! MY WHOLE GAME IS ABOUT TO CHANGE. Omg thank u so much, I love u ! Lol jk but this really honestly saved my life in SOOOOOOO many ways 🥰 this is amazing. Thank u(: & I also want to say thank u for showing us how to dye our carpet bcuz I've wanted black carpet in my car forever but like knew it would never happen bcuz it's too much money but this I CAN DO, like literally everything u did, I love, & the bottle I think had it had cold water around it to the top it would of worked just fine how u invisioned it, meybe like a certain size small bucket would been easier to fill higher... I'm very impressed & I love your style, I like to use rainbow colors too but wow u went way to the top ! That's way cool & lol at the end when u said about the driveway but thats really cool u pay attention to that kind of stuff(: anyways sorry I'm just hella happy I found this & learned so much from u. Ok thnx bye!
Exactly what i was looking for, brand and all lol thank you 👍
Did almost the same with my carpet. I used some black chalk paint mixed with water. Works perfectly and costs about the same as your method.
Great job fella I'm thinking to do this too
Good video. You can throw a cup of non iodized salt in the dye bath to make sure the cotton soaks it up.
Curious how well this held up
Nice video... Thanks! Question... If carpet gets dirty in the future, can I do regular cleaning with foam cleaner? Does the paint come out? Thanks!
Does the dye stain after drying up or if wet again after drying?
How did it hold up? I used the Rit dye for nylon and it faded away within 6 months
Does the dye have to be hot whenever you spray it or just when you mix?
What a beautiful job you did there now I know
Bravo well done!
Did you leave the mat attached when you sprayed it? I did this and it's still wet after 3 days of drying and it's too heavy to move
Cool video. Did the carpet seem stiff or scratchy after? How well do u think black dye would cover a red carpet?
Do you think you can do it with the headliner aswell??
Awesome video. I am about to do this in my WRX. What kind of courseness for the brush/broom did you use? Do you have a material list somewhere?
I used half a bottle like you did on mine and it was dark grey did a more dense bottle the 2nd time and I’m guessing it was too thick for the sprayer
I tried this but with the rattle can dyes and it looked alright but made the carpets really crunchy. Might try with liquid dye
Really good video, ordered some rit to do my car carpet
Would this work with the headliner too?
Did you rinse it out after your put the diy ?
Great idea. will try it
Great video just wanted to know after a year how well it holds up. And does it dye ur shoes ?
Does that black come off on your skin? Would it dye anything you set down on the floor?
how well does it stick?
sick stuff!! hows the dye holding up ?
Dam you’re good at these diy videos!!! Very impressive James!!

Maybe get one of those pump sprayers for watering plants and u get to avoid the forearm workout
Next time you should use RIT colo stay. It bonds and protects the dye from running or fading

What sponge did you use?
Do you use a wet sponge or dry sponge?
Will it work on a soft headliner
You should dye the seats too bro looks good especially on the money you spent genius bro
Do you think this will come off on my shoes or my pants if I do this?
Wow impressed
What kind of paint are you using? It looks amazingly

Let it sit and carpet clean it after the fact
Water to rit ratio? For example like 1/4 rit for 16oz water or sum like that
How long does this last ?
Seems like a good method, but you should have washed it to see how it holds up. For anyone watching this I highly recommend you also make a spray bottle of RIT DYE COLOR STAY, as the name suggests it helps BOND the color to fabric.
I did exactly has he did, but my carpet was beige. It looks brown.
You forgot to add the (Rit colorstay Dye fixative) that goes last, it’s to make the dye last longer and stay doesn’t stain your shoes. I did this on a car but didn’t add the colorstay fixative and it stained my shoes bad.

Believe you are supposed to wash it normally post dying, after its sit in the dye for long enough to stain. Thats what is done with everything else that is dyed with rit dye. Let the carpet sit for a night and then go in there with a bucket, sponge and soap and put in some hard elbow grease to get rid of the leftover dye material. Might take a second go through too idk.
Your videos are cherry very helpful on both channels thank you. Do you know if there's a green dye for the carpet?

Yes, the rite dye comes in a whole crap ton of different colors. So if you had fabric seats as well you could also dye those any color you wanted
I wanna do this so bad, I just dont have the patience to take everything out and put it all back in. I'm in waxahachie, you live close? If I paid you would you do it for me?
I would say clean and bleach it before dying it. Then after dying it make sure to clean the carpet with pressure washer then re-dye it if necessary then pressure wash again to remove excess. But in the end it's an old civic, who cares if it's not perfect ahah

i deffs thought bleach would hold the color in better. and also maybe even used a heat gun or blow dryer before wqshing it to lock in the color a little more maybe?
Damnit... it didnt work on mine. I don't know if yours is different than mine, but its like it wouldn't stick to my carpet, maybe because it's polyester idk
Tried the same thing after following a different persons technique but it didn't come out nearly as black. Definitely going to try your way. Any transfer to clothing etc and would it work on the plastic trim in the car as well. Like dye the plastic black?

Did this on my 1994 Accord Wagon. If you do the same process but wash out each coat after it sits overnight with a sprayer on a regular garden hose it will wash the extra dye out and that way it wont stain other things and will keep the same texture as it did stock when done. So dye it, let sit overnight, wash off with water, dry by shop vac, redye, sit, wash, dry by shop vac, repeat until color is satisfactory when dry. When you like the color make sure its washed out well and then vacuum and dry it really well and then you'll be golden. The texture after done or being in the car for a couple days afterwards will be the exact same as stock.

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.

To enhance the color and reduce color bleeding, use Rit ColorStay Dye Fixative immediately after dyeing and before washing, following these instructions. Rinse in cool water until rinse water begins to run clear. Wash in warm water with a mild detergent, rinse and dry.

If you did this for seats I would suggest using the carpet cleaner to wash the excess dye out (maybe let it set overnight first) because otherwise it’s gonna dye your clothes when you sit on it. Rit dye is meant to be rinsed out after. Kinda like when someone dyes their hair, same concept
Does the carpet keep it's soft texture afterwards, or does it get stiff/hard?

For the spray paint method just make sure you clean the carpet well (power-wash & soap or whatever) and spray with multiple light coats at different angles.

If you don't have a shampooer, you can just use hot water, some degreaser and a brush to scrub and rinse off with hose. If you've got a wet/dry vacuum, use that to suck up water from the carpet.
So if you wanted to dye the interior an actual color like if I wanted to do mine blue would I have to bleach the carpet/seats first? They have royal blue rit dye so I wanna try it

Hi I got a quick question have you noticed the dye come off onto your shoes or washed out like does it come out of the carpet I asked because I tried it on the a&p pillars and c pillars after I applied it I was able to rinse it all out back to its original color of tàn all the black came out but I used it straight from the bottle I didn't mix any water maybe that's where I'm doing something wrong.
