Rit DyeMore Single Bottle 7 Oz. Synthetic Liquid Fiber Dye for Clothing, Décor, and Crafts – Royal Purple

Bought this dye for a pair of trousers which were 100% polyester the dye was very good , easy to use colour was a bit darker than we expected but may go a little lighter when washed a few times. One thing I would point out the instructions are so small on the. Bottle you need a magnifying glass to read and it’s still difficult, could you not put the instructions on a leaflet as attach to the bottle. Apart from that would recommend.

Overall- First Rit dye that I’ve used. A good golden yellow that mixed well with brown Rit dye. I was dyeing a number of items in blotches of brown and yellow. Dyes gave a much stronger colour on cotton, cotton/polyester and viscose mixes than they did on fur fabric. (I know fur fabric is a bit difficult!!)Not as simple as Dylon machine dye - but more versatile!Had to dye a large , cream, fake sheepskin coat - and other clothes - in ‘earth’ colours as a film prop.Result was great, even though I could not keep the coat at the recommended temperature throughout dyeing (too big for a pot on the stove), meaning that it was paler.

It’s not really working on polyester

Unfortunately it doesn’t work, I tried the powder as well but still failed to dye the fabric

Dyed 60% polyester 40% cotton. Dyed with cotton dye first in machine and then used this product. Very good result. One star deducted as stovetop boiling a bit messy but needed given the temperature required for dye fastness in synthetic fabric.

Polyester is hard to dye, let`s not tell porky pies. However, with perseverance and a little ingenuity it is possible. I bought second hand chairs (pic 1) very cheaply and despite fairly heavy wear turned them into usable, comfortable loungers. I should point out I am a site carpenter and have had no previous experience in the upholstery trade.I disassembled the chairs and removed the covers (top tip, take plenty of photos). Being unable to find/locate/scrounge a suitable stainless steel pot big enough, more than 35 litres, I purchased a second hand Swan boiler of 20 litres. This meant I had to dye the parts of one chair in two lots (following the instructions to the letter) After bringing the water up to temperature (approx 95 centigrade) I then proceeded to put dye (Anthracite), washing up liquid and covers into boiler. I stirred for 40 minutes using a stainless steel set of barbeque tongs before allowing it to sit for a further 25 minutes (at temperature). Using said tongs, I removed covers and put into a clean 40 litre trug half filled with warm water. Quick rinse, allowing everything to cool somewhat then into second trug with cold water. After rinsing through fairly well, quick hand wring, then into washing machine for a medium cycle (40 degrees quick wash) with a couple of old towels as per instructions. Repeat another 3 times and hey presto the results as per pic 2 and 3.Bit of a faff, and somewhat long winded but I am really happy with the results.

Great pigment, lovely colour.

Very easy to use. Good results.

Used this due to colour a synthetic wig that I’m using for a costume. This dye coloured the wig perfectly without damage and with even colour throughout. I would imagine it would do just as good a job on synthetic fabric.

Works great for other products but for a synthetic wig it did not take the color.

The directions are super simple to follow, but I could hardly read them on the packaging, so I had to come back here to view the pic with the product! But color was good. Got a nice gray color, not deep black, as expected. As directed, WEAR GLOVES! It will stain skin and nails if you’re dying the fabric without gloves on. I forgot my gloves before I started the process, and said oh well after I was already elbow deep in my dye bath…and now have a nice mechanics look to sport for the last couple of days 😊!

I have a favorite office shirt-as a matter of fact-I have 5 of the same shirt. After wearing them for a couple years-they have faded. I took a chance on trying this dye, what a great refresh for my shirts. The color has made my shirts look like new. I dyed the shirts 3 months ago-and after wearing and washing them weekly-my shirts still look great. I will definitely dye some other clothes and use this dye. Easy to use. I dyed mine in a wash machine-used the hot water available-and yes-it worked great!

I use this brand of dye all the time for my cosplays and I love it! You can’t see it very well in this photo😅, but I used this to dye a top for my gumi cosplay. Works perfectly, doesn’t fade after multiple washes even in hot water, and only used like maybe half the bottle. My all time favorite dye!
