would you use this on a 9 x 12 wool rug?

I think it's safe enough for use on a wool rug. The smell is nice, the ease of use is fine, but I can't really say that I see any great cleaning power, but I use it for the sent any helping with loose dirt and dust removal.

I don't own any wool carpets, but since the product description says it's safe for use on all carpet fibers, I don't see why not.

I bought 2 beautiful New Zealand Wool runners for my interior halls. Almost on cue my cat vomited on one and the dog had an accident on the other. I tried cleaning them with a water based cleaner and the rug fibers were ruined in those areas (distorted and packed down), and the stains kept wicking up. I used the capture on those and future stains and it worked like a charm with no damage to the fibers. Some stains required a few treatments but they came out beautifully in the end

We have several area rugs for which it works quite well. The only rugs I would avoid would be those with a lot of fringe or 'shag' type carpet. It is most effective on hardwood and tile floors.

It will be tight, I would go bigger, barn method, if an 8 by 10 will work you really need a10 by 12!

It may if the carpet pile is long enough. I've always had luck fluffing up a furniture footprint by allowing an ice cube to melt in the print. Allow to dry and then fluff.

I haven't tried on wool. Since the material is a little damp, I would be concerned with colorfastness. Perhaps a spot check first.

Absolutely, I have 2 runner rugs that I taped down over carpet (very long rugs), very easy to do as is double sided and easy to work with. I have had it down now for over 2 months and as not slipped at all. It is in high traffic area. I love this stuff. I even used it to cover up gap in door for insulation.

No, it wouldn't be suitable as a rug on hardwood--wouldn't lay flat and it would constantly be tripping people up. Get a good rug pad for hardwood floors (try overstock.com and read reviews. Should be kind of thick and felt like--not the waffle kind), then a Flokati rug would work. Good luck!

I use it on a rug and it works great. I would imagine it would work but hard to say for sure if you have very plush carpet.

I used mine for an area rug so don't really know. I would definitely order another for my vacation home if they still carried this item.

Never used it on a braided rug but can't see why it wouldn't work just as good on one as it does on carpet..

I was spraying an 8' x 10' rug and ran out about halfway through. Perhaps I was laying down a pretty thick spray, but even if I were to use it more sparingly, I wouldn't expect to get that size rug out of a single can. Note that the label on the can says that it's enough for a 5' x 8' rug.

I say yes. I've used it and it is recommended for pretty much all fabrics and textiles. Just always test a small spot on any rug or fabric to make sure the color isn't affected. I've used it on vegetable dyed wool rugs with great success.

I bought a big area rug and it fits just fine. The set has done me good seeing that I'm only at the learning stage. :)

I have not....but I wouldn't try it unless you are willing to have it be ruined. Ever wash a wool sweater in the machine? The combination of water and friction causes the wool to "felt," which makes it shrink and get dense. Since the wool filling is inside a cotton cover, it seems that it would get enough friction to felt, and it's not like you can comb it out. You might be left with a lots-o-lumps comforter. And since the cover is 100% cotton that could shrink too. Also, the wool would soak up so much water and it could become so heavy it might damage your machine, or the water may never spin out and you could be left with a moldy mess. If you just want to freshen it up, hang it in the sun (if you are in an area that has sun this time of year!) or throw it in the dryer on extra low (if you have it) or fluff, and add a sachet of lavender, or a rag that has your favorite essential oils dripped on it. Try to avoid putting a dryer sheet in there, dryer sheets contain chemicals that can coat the fibers. If you had a spill or something, treat it like you would carpet with spot treating and a mild soap. Try to dab instead of scrubbing. Or look for a "green" dry cleaner such as Blue Sky. Sorry I can't give you a definite answer, but my experience with washing machine disasters has taught me caution!

it would depend on the type of rug. it was have to have a non slip back or it would slip around.
