I used to use Americolor.
 
I would recomment taking a course first as it is not that easy to learn from scratch. I used to do complete dye jobs for a few apt complexes. They were happy and I was happy
Could somebody just clean my carpets!

I havent yet started dying carpets, I'd like to be able to get into that, I have a customer that has dog stains all over the house that has changed the color of his carpets. Can anybody recommend a good supplier and a site that has info on dying carpets?

If indeed you do have color damage it is more than likely caused by the vomit. If so you should contact your dye distributor or I could recommend to you a dye product (as opposed to the oxidizing agent as most of these are very color safe today) called Prism from Von Schrader out of Michigan.



This answer is right on.  I have off white and I have seen off white carpets that do this.  Just cleaning up pet vomit fast can be enough to get that one spot clean and all the rest of the traffic area is crying for a cleaning.
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

Hi there,I have seen this from oxy-clean before.if the customer uses too much it will definately remove colour from the carpet.The spot is usually left in the pinky,purply colour.I have actually fixed a few of them.They are generally easier to deal with given the fact that they are much easier to deal with than bleach in the neutralization process.
