How to Dye Carpet

Hey no offense to you Andy you did a good job. But my OCD shows me there is still some visible orange in your pictures leftover in the carpet in random spots even after you finished dying it. Did you fix it?
 
Question: Does the dye change the smell when you're inside the car? If so, is it strong? How is it holding up?

I didn't notice any smell at all. Looks really sharp!

That was intentional to have some showing, because those areas were covered by seats or trim pieces. He didn't want to really saturate and dye the areas you wouldn't see and he would save some dye during the process.
 
Not at Aaron, as Andrew was saying, I don't feel it necessary as they will be covered up by trim pieces. It could use another coat, but I was pressing on time. There were strong vinegar smell then the paint smell. It was pretty strong at first. I had to stick an air purifier/cleaner in the car an run it for a few hours to get most of the smell out. It still some very light smell lingering after 5 months. Maybe because, my nose know what to look for when I seat in the car now. :smile (2): I would say that if someone don't seat in the car often will probably not notice it!
