Hey Rick,
Two things could occur on a "darker" carpet with Encap-HydrOx.
(1) Color loss can sometimes occur. It's not common, but it can happen, so test for color-fastness first.
(2) The encap polymer in Encap-HydrOx is very white in color, and it is possible that if you apply it heavily that you may see some whiteness on a "dark" color.
OK, now that I've got the disclaimer out of the way... Encap-HydrOx is the bomb on water stains, especially ones that may have the potential to wick back again.
