Can sealant be used on backside of rugs?

Question

I have asked this before.....wondering if it is possible to somehow paint a sealant on the back side of bound rugs to prevent the backing from leaving sand like deposits on my wood floors..

Geew · Answer

I would not suggest 'painting'a sealant on a porous rug, the chemical would bleed through onto the top side of your rug.

Try a sold Carpet Pad/Liner sold almost everywhere. Eg: Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart, Amazon, Bed Bath & Beyond, etc. *Make sure is not a porous pad/liner, you need a solid one to prevent anything reaching your floor.

The non-skid pad could be secured to the rug with a spray glue... and that should coat the old backing will enough that it would quit flaking off... Make sure the glue is washable... I think the Aleene's makes one

I have used muslin cloth and hot glued it to the bottom of rugs. Then put a few blobs of clear caulk around the perimeter every 6' smashed it down with aluminum foil to prevent the rug from moving. Ant solid cloth would work.

The dollar store sells mats that are non skid and could be sewn onto the back of a rug. If you needed to remove it you would be able to.
