What kind of carpet paint do you guys use?
A bottle of bleach popped open cause of hot weather and spilled on my rear carpet and floor mats. Anyone know of a good carpet paint that would match the OEM color? I have a TL TYPE S with black/ebony interior.

SEM dyes have always had a good reputation. Years ago I painted a blue carpet black with Duplicolor fabric spray paint, it's held up fine.

I have used SEM, VHT. and Duplicolor; VHT and SEM are my two preferred suppliers.

I'd go with SEM - have heard great stuff about them.

I know some people that use it to convert interior colour, going from taupe to ebony, etc.
SEM is the way to go.

Do you know the color that would best match the OEM color of the carpet?

Why not getting new carpets?
