Fabric dye for use in front loading washing machines.
The shade you achieve will depend on three things:1. FABRIC TYPECotton, linen and viscose will dye to full shade as shown on the pack.Polyester/cotton and polyester/viscose mixes will dye to a lighter shade.Wool, silk, polyester, acrylic, nylon and fabric with special finishes cannot be dyed.
2. FABRIC AMOUNTOne pack will dye up to 600g weight of fabric to the full shade, and up to 1.2kg of fabric to a lighter shade.Multiple packs will dye larger amounts to full shade, e.g. 2 packs for 1.2kg or 4 packs for 2kg.
3. ORIGINAL FABRIC COLOURDye combines with the existing fabric colour/pattern - it will NOT cover other colours.Colour mixing rules apply, e.g. blue dye on red fabric gives a purple result.Polyester stitching will not dye.
InstructionsWeigh dry fabric to ensure you have sufficient dye.Wash fabric thoroughly, even if new.Wearing rubber gloves, empty full contents of pack(s) directly into the drum (not the detergent drawer).Add 500g ordinary salt covering the dye powder and put in the damp unfolded fabric.Run a 40C cotton cycle (do not use pre-wash, economy or half load cycles).When complete, add your normal washing detergent and run the 40C cotton cycle again.Remove fabric from machine, add detergent and run empty on a 40C cycle to clean the machine.Dry the fabric away from direct heat and sunlight.
TIPSFor front loading washing machines. Do not use in launderette machines or top loaders.Don't use more than five packs of dye at once.Dye will not cover stains, faded areas or bleach marks.After dyeing, wash separately or with similar colours for first two washes to remove any excess dye.Please wear rubber gloves when handling the dye
