May a non-baptised person wear a scapular other than the green one?

I don’t know the exact teaching on it, but I do know many Protestants that wear a regular scapluar…! :]

Apparently because the little paper thing I was given with mine says:
For Non-Catholics
Our Lady’s Motherhood is not limited to Catholics: it is extended to all men. Many miracles of conversion have been wrought in favor of good non-Catholics who have been induced to practice the Scapular devotion.
That said I think that anyone who wears it must be enrolled and must pray either the rosary, the little office of the Blessed Virgin Mary, or 7 our fathers 7 hail marys and 7 glory be-s daily (for each option). Or the wearer can, I’ve heard, choose to abstain from meat on Tuesdays and Saturdays instead.

Indeed. Here is a link to a FAQ page

Warning, I was baptised, but not catholic, when I put on the brown and green scapulars. A year later…

They cannot be enrolled in the Sacpular so they do not receive the benefits, however they would receive Actual Grace for their conversion.
