Hi-Tech Carpet Dye Black for Vinyl Plastic and Carpet Aerosol
Hi-Tech Carpet Dye Black (HT-470) is an aerosol dye for automotive carpet, vinyl, and plastic that is too stained or faded to clean back to black. It restores, renews, and rejuvenates the color, covers stains that will not wash out, and leaves a permanent coating that will not crack, split, peel, or rub off. It comes in an 11.25 oz can, sold from 1 can up to a case of 12.
How Hi-Tech Carpet Dye Works on Carpet, Vinyl, and Plastic
Hi-Tech designed this dye for the automotive industry, with each color computer-matched to O.E.M. standards. Hi-Tech Carpet Dye does not change the texture of the surface, so carpet and vinyl stay soft and flexible after they are dyed. On carpet, it blends easily into the faded fibers. On vinyl and plastic, it restores scratched, worn, or faded areas on interior plastic trim and molding, headrests, door panels, and other hard plastic surfaces in a car, truck, SUV, RV, or boat. It works just as well around the home on vinyl, plastic, and carpet.
What Makes This One Worth Keeping in the Garage:
- Permanent coating that will not crack, split, peel, or rub off
- Will not change the texture: carpet and vinyl stay soft and flexible
- Covers stains that will not wash out, including bleach stains, red dyes, and coffee stains
- Hides scratches, blemishes, and faded areas
- Restores the original color or changes it to black
- Snorkel-type tip with an adjustable fan pattern puts the dye right where you want it
- California OTC/VOC compliant
How to Use Hi-Tech Carpet Dye
Hi-Tech Carpet Dye can be used on vinyl, plastic, and carpet. Keep in mind that this is a permanent coating.
- On plastic and vinyl, remove all silicone, dirt, grease, and grime with a good degreaser, rinse with clean water, and let the surface dry completely.
- On carpet, make sure it is cleaned and vacuumed before you dye it.
- Cover any nearby areas that you do not want dyed. Our masking tape helps here.
- Apply an even, light coat. Two or three coats may be needed.
- On carpet, brush the dye into the fibers right after spraying.
- Let each coat dry until it is no longer tacky before applying the next one.
Tip: For the best results when covering stains or changing colors, go from a lighter color to a darker color, never from a darker color to a lighter one. That is what makes black the easiest color to work with.

On time! Works perfectly.

The price and product are great. I have a 15 year old car with black carpet faded gray in several places. I tested the spray on the floor mats and they came out great. I touched up the interior carpet next and it looks new. To prep, all I did was vacuum before using the spray, and I taped the edges with some masking tape. It dried quickly, no smell, and the carpet feels just like it did before. It did not get crunchy or anything.
