The most popular kit for smaller bleach spots because it comes with 3 colors of your choice, Bleach Neutralizer and Dye Pen Remover. Suggested because there is not one magic color that will work for your carpet ; you have to blend the colors. The dye pen remover is there just in case you go too dark and the bleach neutralizer to neutralize the active chlorine crystals.
Choose 1 color that is closest to the original color of carpet, 1 color that is lighter and 1 color that is darker. Lt Gray is excellent for blending if any gray hues are present in your original carpet color.
Watch this video below if you’re still having trouble picking your carpet dye pen colors.
Start with process of elimination.
What general color is the carpet? Example: brown carpet ( #1-#18 )
Is it very light or very dark? Example: Light brown (#1, #2, #4, #5, #7, #8, #13, #14)
What is the underlying hue? ( see section below)
Example : Light brown with gray ( #7, #8, maybe #1 or #2)
Example : The lightest brown a carpet can be ( #7, #1, #4 – the lightest shades we offer )
Example : Medium brown with yellow carpet ( #4, #5, #6)
Purchase an additional color for optimum results. Always test color on white cloth first.

Beige carpet has an underlying hue of pink.
Tan carpet has an underlying hue of yellow.
Taupe carpet has an underlying hue of gray.
