Hand Dye, Fabric Dye Sachet for Clothes, Soft Furnishings and Projects, 50 g - Intense Black

Great job as usual with this item. You can’t go wrong

I got it to dye a while cotton sweathshirt. I loved the sweatshirt, but not the colour. The colour came a bit..uneven in places. A bit like tie-dye project but it looks good. It is quite easy instructions to follow and do it. This dye did not work on the embrodery but I would probably colour it again with a dye for synchetics later on. Unfortunately, the app does not allow me to attach photos.

When the summer arrived and my blue shorts came out of the draw it was obvious that they had become faded over time and needed replacing. There didn’t seem to be any similar quality alternatives available (on line at the time or so it seemed) so I thought that perhaps they could be dyed instead. The shorts themselves were cotton based with white and blue inside banding and white pockets within . I opted to dye them dark blue to restore them to the original colour. Since I was familiar with the name DYLON it was the obvious choice and for six quid , new shorts it was a no brainer. The instructions are on the packet but essentially and ideally what you need is a large plastic storage box type receptacle, although a washing up bowl or your kitchen sink will do, 250 grams of ordinary table/cooking salt , rubber gloves and possibly if you don’t wear specs some form of eye protection. On dyeing day I prepared the plastic box filled it with the prescribed amount of warm water and stirred in the salt and colour dye as per instructions using a plastic kitchen utensil ( the one you use for turning eggs over). You have to pre soak the garment in plain water prior to immersing it in the mixture . Once immersed it is important to regularly stir the pot to make sure that there are no are pockets in the material and that all material is submerged. I found that placing one of those plastic draining board grids on top of the clothing helped to keep it down. After following all this procedure I eventually lifted out the shorts , rinsed them as instructed and then hung them up to dry. I now have new shorts and the good news is that because it doesn’t dye synthetic material, the waste band and pockets remained white as before. I was then left with a storage box full of dark blue water and decided to chance dyeing a pair of similar style beige trousers and see what happened . This left over liquid managed to turn them into a reasonable mid blue colour although the beige buttons and nylon stitching are a bit of a giveaway. However they have now been given a perfect undercoat and would probably go all the way to dark blue next time with a fresh brew. Disposing of the left over liquid is down to your own conscience, but the good news is that the storage box and the egg slice were unscathed. In conclusion you cannot dye every material or expect dramatic colour change or end up with the colour you expect.

Dye works very well, but bear in mind it’s a green based grey, so it’s possible you’ll get a greenish hue… the jeans were light grey before, with a blue undertone, so the dye is definitely not blue based. The actual process was good, and my jeans turned out even, but they’re certainly not the colour I was expecting.

Wow ! These cargo pants were army green before, I left them all day and used 2x packs and they have come out brilliant! VERY happy with the result

very bad doesn't even dye the clothes I did everything as the instruction said and it came out the same color as before (I kept it even longer in the dye as I wasn't sure if my timing was wrong ) just save your money and buy a different dye if you want to change the color. my clothing wasn't even a hard color to change it to black as black is a strong color but still very disappointing.

I invested in a great pair of really nice black shorts and was really annoyed when the colour went patchy and faded after only a little wear and a couple of washes. Bought this to see if I could recolour my new shorts to get rid of the fade. This product did not disappoint. I coloured my garment in my stainless steel sink and it left no stains. I followed the instructions very carefully (even weighed the salt) and my favourite shorts look amazing. Strangely, the colour is richer and much more colourfast than the original dye. This is a great, easy to use product and very much worth a few quid to restore the appearance of your favourite clothes. Very happy 😃

I wouldn't buy this again and wouldn't recommend it. I followed the instructions perfectly but the problems are (1) the colour isn't navy, it's a medium blue (and I had to dye it twice to even get it this dark because it was even lighter blue the first time, (2) you will have to handwash the item forever otherwise it will discolour anything else that you wash it with, and (3) if you use the washing machine method, it leaves dye in the machine.

what is there to say? - good and dependable as per

Estos tintes son geniales, los colores, los tonos, son perfectos para usarlos en casa, con cualquier tejido natural o mezcla. me encantan!

Simple easy process. Good coverage and colour.

Hat sehr pink gefärbt auf Jeans und sogar etwas mehr Synthetik. Keine Flecken, super.

Quizás no lo utilice bien, pero después de la tintada que quedo violeta no grisácea, la mayor parte del color se fue.
