Title: Denim Dye from 100% Wool
Post by: Jamie Pearson on June 04, 2013, 09:06:11 pm

Tackling this tomorrow.

Have a huge range of stuff at my disposal (no MPower tho)

Just wondered what you would try first?

Not sure about the question?

Is it 100% wool carpet with dye transfer from denim?

Isopol alcohol first followed by 20% acetic acid, also amyl acetate or pog will help.

Depends how much. Did one last week (she sat in front of the fire over the winter with jeans). 99% came out with isop then ace - before cleaning.

Makes so more sense typed in in Geordie rather than Scots.

Turns out the carpet was 50:50 wool:silk.

Prochem Solvex and Chemspec Textile Rinse sorted it.

Unfortunately they had already tried one of them with Vax spotter and had removed some of the colour.
Nothing major and only noticeable if you knew it was there. at the rate this carpet has faded (6 months old) it shouldnt be long before it will blend.

Thanks for the input everyone.
