Ans: One pack will dye up to 600g of fabric to the full shade (up to 1.8kg of fabric to lighter shades). Use multiple packs to dye larger amounts of fabric. Always use the whole pack(s) in one go. You can use up to 5 packs in one wash.

Ans: Colour mixing rules apply, e.g. blue dye on a red fabric will result in purple. Patterns on the fabric may also still be visible after dyeing. Stains, faded areas or bleach marks may not always covered by the dye.

Ans: When dyeing, don’t use additional salt or fix, as the dye already includes these.

Ans: The dyeing process with DYLON consumes 60 litres of water. The production of a single pair of new jeans consumes about 8000 litres of water.

Ans: You can treat dyed fabrics just like new fabrics. The shade will last longer if you use a colour care detergent instead of an all-purpose detergent.

Ans: Dyed fabric is the same as a new item in terms of colour. It should be washed with similar-coloured textiles to minimize the risk of colour runs. Red fabrics for example should not be washed with white fabrics.

Ans: Yes sometimes, but you would need to use DYLON Pre-Dye first to remove the original colour.

Ans: Yes it’s fine to dye well washed fabrics and the colour mixing rules still apply.

Ans: The best results will be achieved on stain free, clean fabrics. Stains are not always covered when dyeing and may still be visible.

Ans: Yes, but the machine has to be cleaned with a separate wash cycle (ideally 40°C). This is necessary in order to remove the risk of any traces of dye being left in the machine.

Ans: Yes, but only by using DYLON hand dye. Machine dye and wash and dye are therefore not suitable for dyeing by hand.

Ans: It is important to clean the washing machine after dyeing as per the instructions in order to prevent any issues with subsequent washes.

Ans: Yes, after the first wash after dyeing you can put your dyed fabrics in the dryer. You can treat your DYLON dyed fabrics like any other coloured fabrics.

No, DYLON fabric dyes are not suitable to be used in a top loader machine.

Ans: DYLON will not harm your washing machine. Due to the fact that DYLON is a dye, slight staining of rubber parts e.g. seals is possible. The staining will not affect following washing loads. You are advised to follow the instructions in the pack and to clean the machine with a separate empty wash cycle (40°) after dyeing. Traces of dye on the rubber seal can be removed by wiping with a small amount of bleach.

Ans: The patterns are very likely to remain after dyeing.
