Test your dye on an inconspicuous area of the carpet. Put a small amount of the mixed dye in a spray bottle and spray it on the test area of the carpet. Wait for the test to dry before covering your entire carpet with dye. The test area will show if the dye is the right color and if the fiber is absorbing the dye properly. Pour the dye into a sprayer and spray the carpet. Be even with your spray. Spray small sections and rub the dye gently into the carpet with a stiff cleaning brush as you go.

Then use the bristle brush to brush the dye in with a light, semi-circular movement.
For the ideal exit route, start spraying in the corner opposite the door.
