Have been using this soda ash for by procion dye tie dye. Works great!

price is great! used for Tye Dye clothings, sheets, pillowcases, etc

Just learning how to different tie dyes when I accidentally bought this thinking I needed it (when I didn’t) but then as I tried other dyes, it turned out I did need it.I will be buying more soon. Turns out about a cup makes a gallon of or pre soak so depending on how much you do, this will be more than enough or you may need lots more.I keep mixed portion in a five gallon bucket with lid to save so I can come back to it. You can apparently sprinkle on at end of process to but still just working on one process at a time.

Perfect for tie dye projects, I got pulled over and searched and the police officer was wanting to know what was in the bag I informed him that I was on my way to do tie-dye lol it was kinda funny. Like dude don't waste your time

Great-- Thanks!!

Perfect for ice dyeing

Oahu now has 2 distribution centers so we are getting orders much faster, but not all items. This will take 2 weeks if it arrives as scheduled so consider this when you order -

- Soda Ash, Washing Soda, Sodium Carbonate, or Na2CO3 - several names for a multi-use substance. Just don't confuse it with sodium BIcarbonate, which is baking soda, and much milder than this soda ash.- Jacquard sells this as a fixative for its like of Procion/Fiber-Reactive dyes. What it does is "tie" the molecules of the dye to the cellulose of plant-based fibers, i.e., cotton, flax, and naturally-sourced rayons, which - if I recall correctly! - are basically re-polymerized cellulose that itself is obtained from various plants, especially bamboo, beech trees, and hemp. Beyond being a dye fixative, it has various cleaning applications. Note, though, that this isn't the same as the washing soda sold in the laundry aisle of the grocery; this is a "dense" form which is not hydrates, whereas the laundry form has several water molecules attached to each molecule of sodium carbonate. The end effect is that this dense form is stronger, therefore more basic/more caustic. So one does need to take precautions when using this dense form of sodium carbonate, since it *can* cause a chemical burn. At the same tome, though, the format of this sodium carbonate by Jacquard is about the safest possible, because the granules, while small enough to dissolve well, also are just heavy enough so that they won't be easily blown or lifted into the air, as a powder would. So it's harder to breathe-in any of the granules. But do wear good chemical-resistant gloves and eye-protection, and become acquainted with safety precautions. Jacquard's Soda Ash can be *very* useful, but it's important to be safe!
