I dyed mine monday again and as normal dry in about 30mins but left it out till yesterday and still the same dry putting it back but cos was wet outside trainers was dyed again!! (old trainers as knackerd them last time lol) but still bleeding out. been thinking about spraying a waterproofing spray over it but will it still bleed out?? and if i did spray it would i be able to dye the carpet again??

I used the Valeters Pride stuff too and didn't have any problems with bleeding. Did you spray it on in a few light coats or soak the carpet in dye?

 

hi mate yeah sprayed it in 6 light coats and waited about half hour between coats as was messing about with other bits on the car.

as said was done monday and left out to dry till friday and was bone dry rubbed hand over it and had a very very light black dust on my hand as you would think you would get just for abit of over spary drying before the rest. then then fitted in the car all good only to find that the water from wet ground outside made it bleed the dye again!!!.

what did i do wrong if anything?? how can i seal it in so it dont put dye over everything lol......

I used about 6 tins of autoglym (£5 or something a tin) my carpet came out very well and has no issue of it coming back off, the only reason I used the autoglym was I got two tins off it and when I started I realised two tins simply wasn't enough :D expensive mistake but then it fone the job and looks great
