The homemade formula may have lightened the carpet. Use a really good shampoo and deeply clean the entire carpet and see if that won't lighten up the remaining carpet. Good luck.

It bleached the color out of the rug, so the white spots so t come out. All you can do is try to match the color with due in those spots!

Hi Pat,

It sound like the color has been removed from the carpet. :( One of my tricks is to cut out a few fibers to glue into places where I had burn marks. But for it to look right, you'll have to remove the light spot marks too. Then fill the space with glued tufts taken from a place where it won't show. You might also try coloring it with very light dye or water color paints. Just be careful that you don't get it too dark or darken the surrounding areas. It is definitely a challenge to do this and get it to look right, especially if your carpet is all one color and would need to be matched exactly. Wishing you the best.

I once dropped a dish carrying beetroot, with all the juice, on to my father-in-law's prized cream rug. Heck. I blotted up the beetroot, not rubbed, but blotted as much as I could with paper towel. Then carefully applied sparking mineral water in very small amounts (or soda water), again blotting. Thankfully all the stain came out. Never rub a stain, always blot. Bi. Carb. would have made the carpet go stiff and scratchy. If you don't have mineral water etc. to hand, just use water, sparingly.

Can I cover bleach spot in my carpet with new piece

Pat · Answer

We had a rug company come out and he cut the bleach spot out and put a new piece in. You could not tell it was patched.
