Clear white vinegar on a clean cloth will often remove soiled spots from wool carpets.
is it possible to paint a wool rug
A braided wool woven rug is made from clean wool, that has been formed into a yarn, then woven into a rug. The first step in making a woven wool rug is to decide how much wool is needed for the final project.
The best way to clean your wool rug would be to get a good rug cleaning solution such as rug cleaner made by Rug Doctor. It works well on all types of rugs. Just read and follow the instructions carefully.
Can someone suggest a good carpet cleaning wool rug care solution? Maybe something I can use on my own?

I would use a washable, sturdy yarn, in a bulky weight, so that the rug would work up faster.

Please note that what is referred to as an Oriental rug will have to be made by hand. Machine-made rugs with Persian or oriental patterns are reproductions and should not be considered as "Oriental rugs". Most of Oriental or Persian rugs have a foundation (warp and weft) of cotton and a pile of wool. After each single row of knots are tied according to a plan or a cartoon, either one or two shots of weft will be inserted over them and packed down with a special tool called "DAFEH". When the whole project is accomplished, the rug will be cut off the loom, washed, shaved with another special tool, and stretched to make the rug lay flat on the floor. Salvage binding to the sides and chain stitching to the ends will give the rug a nice finish. Of course, there are rugs with a silk or wool foundation as well. In a rug with wool foundation, the pile is always wool as well. However, in a rug with a silk foundation, the pile can be just wool, pure silk, or a combination of wool and silk. I hope this answers your question.
Contemporary wool rugs can range from 99 dollars up to 999 dollars. The price varies based on the size, design, quality of wool, and color of the wool rug.
