I have not thoroughly tested how much they mark because it's more than I want to do to the schools hallway. I have asked for carpet donations and hope to get some comparable to the FIRST field to practice on.
Answer #1: You've been around a while. Do I really need to remind you that past years' rulings don't apply to this year?

Answer #2: Want some actual FRC field carpet? Ask your RD and FTA as soon as you get to the regional (or before) and have a transport big enough for a roll of carpet show up at loadout. Now you have a full roll (or two, if you want that much) to transport back and work with, and it's free.
