Fun project that we did. This was a custom made designer wool rug that belongs to Daniel Snyder, owner of the Washington Redskins NFL football team. His wife, Tonya, wanted it dyed to a specific shade of blue to match her curtains.

Fun job. This is the BEST kind of winter work!

Blue is better than that horrible maroon. :lol:

Bears fan here but one of my supervisors is a huge skins fan.

He has even flown out there to watch a few games in the last few years. He still clings on to Riggo (Ex KU player) when ever I give him shit. :biggrin:

The skins suck!
RG3...whut dummies! :winky:

I actually get free tickets to Redskins games. But have to sit in Snyder's VIP boxes which are right under Snyder's nose.

Ron, this took about 4 hours to do the entire rug using the airbrush. Charged $5,200.00
That's impressive. I've heard though that the dyes used are extremely expensive. What would the cost's for doing a rug this size be for the owner of your system?

Ron, our material cost in this job was about $4.00 The dyes are extremely concentrated.

The dye kit is $250. One kit is sufficient for hundreds of color repair jobs.
