Review: Great Buy! - I use Rit dye all the time, here are some helpful tips! Step by Step CHOOSING FABRICS. Rit works best on many natural, washable fabrics and materials, such as: a. 100% cotton, linen, silk, wool, ramie b. Synthetics such as rayon and nylon c. Fiber blends with at least 60% cotton or other dyeable fiber (blends will tint evenly but will not achieve full color) d. Nylon-based plastic such as those found in buttons, fasteners and lacrosse sticks e. Natural materials such as wood, wicker, paper, feathers and cork But there are fabrics and materials that will not accept dye, such as: a. 100% polyester, acrylic, acetate, fiberglass, spandex and metallic fibers b. Fabrics with rubber backing (bath mats or throw rugs) c. Fabrics with special finishes such as water repellents d. Fabrics with bleach damage or extensive staining e. Fabrics washable only in cold water or labeled “dry clean only” f. Polyethylene plastics such as golf discs g. Polycarbonate plastics such as eyeglass frames Fiber content and weight also effect how color appears making fabrics like cotton, wool and silk absorb dye differently, slightly changing the hue and brightness of the chosen color. If you are in doubt as to whether your fabric will accept dye or achieve the color you want, we recommend testing a swatch. DYE PREP. Cover work area with a plastic table cover or newspaper and have paper towels or sponges handy to protect against any possible spills. Wear rubber gloves to protect hands from getting stained and to insulate them when working with hot water. Use plastic buckets or stainless steel pots for the dye bath. You can also dye in a stainless steel sink. Don’t dye or rinse items in a porcelain or fiberglass sink or tub as they are likely to get stained./p> ACHIEVING TRUE COLOR. Always follow manufacturer’s care instructions for your fabric as well as Rit Dye package or bottle instructions. Remove stains on fabric or use Rit Color Remover before dyeing to get fabric to an off-white or cream color. This will help achieve uniform color results when dyeing. Dissolve powder dye thoroughly in 2 cups of very hot water first to avoid dye spotting. Stir dissolved powder dye or well-shaken liquid dye into dye bath until evenly dispersed. Never pour liquid or powder dye directly on fabric unless looking to achieve a specific creative effect. Be sure to use enough dye for the weight or size of the project. For example, for a pound of dry fabric (about 3 yards), use one package of Rit powder or 1/2 bottle of Rit liquid in 3 gallons of water. You want enough water for the fabric to move freely in the dye bath so that it can absorb the dye evenly across the garment. When dyeing 1 pound of dry fabric in dark or bright colors such as Black, Dark Brown, Cocoa Brown, Navy, Purple, Wine, and Dark Green, use double the amount of dye (2 packages of Rit powder or 1 bottle of Rit liquid) in 3 gallons of water. For the deepest color, use a water temperature of 140ºF/60ºC and keep heat constant while dyeing (the stove top method or a washing machine work best). Note: If tap water is not hot enough, heat water on the stove, in a teakettle or in the microwave. If dyeing a garment more than one color, it’s usually best to start with the lightest color and move to the darkest. For more intense color when dyeing fabrics containing cotton, rayon, ramie, or linen, add 1 cup salt to the dye bath. When dyeing nylon, silk and wool, add 1 cup white vinegar to the dye bath. If possible delay adding the salt or vinegar until 5 minutes after the fabric has been in the dye bath. The delay will help to promote level dyeing. Add 1 tablespoon laundry detergent to all dye baths to help promote level dyeing. The longer the garment is immersed in the dye bath, the deeper the resulting color. Items can remain in the dye bath up to 1 hour as long as the water remains hot. You’ll also have to make sure the item receives constant agitation or stirring. Garments will also look darker when wet and prior to washing. When you remove clothes from dye bath, rinse in warm, then cool water until water runs clear. (Warm water helps to rinse off surface dye more effectively.) Wash your fabric/clothes in warm water with mild detergent and then rinse thoroughly in cool water. Machine dry or hang dry. CARING FOR DYED ITEMS. For the first two or three times, wash your dyed item by itself in cool water with a small amount of non-bleaching detergent. Always wash your dyed clothing with similar colors in cool water with mild detergent. Dry cleaning silks and special fabrics is recommended. CLEANUP. Clean containers and sinks immediately after dyeing by scrubbing with hot water and powdered cleanser or bleach. Clean washing machine using highest water level with hot water, detergent and 1 cup chlorine bleach using complete wash cycle. Clean lint traps. Plastic or rubber machine parts may be tinted but will not stain laundry.
Review: Dyeing Made Easy - Rit Dye Liquid Fabric Dye gets the job done, mostly. It’s easy to use and great for reviving old clothes or fixing color mishaps. The black dye works well on cotton and other natural fabrics, getting them pretty dark if you follow the instructions. For example, it saved a pair of my jeans that had a bleach spot. But, there are some downsides. It doesn't always work perfectly on all fabrics—sometimes it can turn out purple instead of black, especially on synthetic materials. Also, the color may fade after a few washes, which can be a bit disappointing. Overall, it's a good product for its price, but results can vary depending on the fabric and how well you follow the instructions.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How colorfast is this dye after rinsing/washing?  Will it rub off on other fabrics?**
A: It probably depends on the fabric and the mordant.  My experience on a cotton shirt was that it lost some color through the first few washings.

**Q: Will this work on cotton?**
A: Yes. But I tested the color with the corner of a paper towel after Googling the instructions on their website. If the paper towel doesn’t look black, add more dye. I had to use 3 bottles of dye to do half a washing machine full of faded Black slacks for work. It worked well but sometimes too much diluted water. Add more dye and it’s like INK! Perfection. Just use the Rit Colorfast after to set it!

**Q: Will it stain my washing machine?**
A: The website suggests washing your machine with the hottest setting and some old white towels and bleach. Washing machine was fine after 1 run.

**Q: can i dye a Levis jean black but a little faded**
A: Depth of color depends on amount of dye and/or amount of water you use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just What I Wanted
*by B***A on January 30, 2025*

This dye is fantastic! Such a great price for a bottle through Amazon compared to other retailers. I've repurchased it multiple times and I super appreciate how carefully they were packed each time. Pay attention to the directions, especially when it comes to how many bottles of dye to use for the amount of fabric you want to dye, and make sure to use the color fixative after. I always add salt and a touch of dish soap as recommended. I use it in my top-loading washer with HOT water and find this to be the easiest, cleanest method for me. Super easy to wipe it down and doesn't stain any of the machine parts!! You don't need quite as much dye if you're refreshing faded blacks as you would if you're going over an item that's dyed a different color. Ex. I refreshed my husband's very faded black jeans and they looked better than new! But in the same batch, I had an army green linen dress and it definitely needed more concentrated dye to take it all the way to true black. In that case, use more dye than you initially think. I'll eventually re-dye that dress but honestly, the dark green/grey color is super cool so I'm enjoying how unique the piece is for the time being.
