A method for treating textile materials, such as carpet, employs an applicator station having a number of spray jets for causing a plurality of streams of fluid to be fanned out into a corresponding plurality of fan shape sheets of spray directed to the surface of a roller. The spray jets are used to spray either air, dye or gum. The roller is mounted for rotation in a dye or gum trough and the jets spray air or other fluid to cause a pattern to be formed in the dye or gum film on the roller. The pattern is transferred to the face of the carpet by a doctor blade or, alternately, directly to the carpet face. The trough may be filled with gum in which case the jets spray dye onto the film of gum picked up by the roller. The trough may also be used for dyeing in which case a different color dye is applied by the jets or multiple roll applicator stations may be provided for multi-color and tone effects. Alternately, no trough is used and dye or gum may be applied by the spray jets to the roller.
