loose the light dark contrast typically associated with denim.
Q
Can I dye faded items?
A
Yes but you should use DYLON Pre-Dye first to remove the colour from the fabric and insure that you get an even colour.
Fabric
Colour Stripper (Pre-Dye) removes colour from fabric so that it can be
dyed a lighter colour. This pack is suitable for using in a washing
machine. It removes colour from fabric returning it to a neutral shade.
The more colour that is removed, the closer you will get to the colour
on the pack of dye when dyeing. Chlorine bleach-free formula will treat
all natural fabrics and nylon.
Not recommended for polyester, acrylic,
acetate or fabrics with special finishes. Some colours such as bright
greens and blues, royal blues, turquoises and indigo (denim) may NOT be
suitable for treatment. One pack is sufficient to remove colour from up
to 2.5kg / 5lbs of dry weight fabric. Do NOT treat more than 2.5kg /
5lbs. Always use the full contents of the pack. Note: Not suitable for
wool or silk, polyester, acetate acrylics or fabrics with special
finishes. This has to be used in a wash at 85-90 degrees.
Q
Can I use dyes in the microwave?
A
Yes you can
use DYLON Hand Fabric Dye in the microwave. Microwave dyeing can achieve
some good tie-dye effects however if you are looking for an even finish
we would not recommend using the microwave.
Q
Why do I need to use salt?
A
You don't
need to add salt to these new 350g pods as its already included in the
mixture. Salt opens up the pores of the fabric and allows the dye to be
absorbed.
Q
Will dyeing affect subsequent washes in my machine?
A
No, just make sure that you follow the pack instructions.
Q
Will dyeing stain my machine?
A
No, just make sure that you follow the pack instructions.

will always have an air of classic, chic sophistication. Coco Chanel
was captivated by the mysterious allure of black; Jackie O loved to wear
it; Audrey Hepburn understood its timeless charm. Black can create the
perfect silhouette; it can be bold just as it can be comforting; perfect
for evenings out and days at the office. With Intense Black, your
blacks will be at their best, rich, intense and profoundly dark.
