Q: Can you use this to dye a black backpack?
A: As long as the backpack is made with natural fibers (i.e. cotton, linen, silk, wool, rayon or ramie) or nylon, then you can. If it has more than 40% polyester, acrylic or acetate, then you'll want to use our dye for synthetics, Rit DyeMore.

Q: Does this dye work on home carpeting.....
A: We have heard of people using our dye to dye carpeting, but we aren't exactly sure how it is done. We typically only recommend dyeing items that can be washed so that you can remove any unabsorbed dye from the fabric. And with carpeting, you can't.
