Jacquard iDye for Natural Fabrics .49 Oz - Olive

I am thrilled with the effectiveness of this dye - very consistent result, true color, and simple instructions. I have a king-size sheet set (flat sheet, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases) that I wanted to dye olive green. I found this iDye product on Amazon. I was a little concerned, since there was only one review and I didn't want to ruin what are fairly new and expensive sheets. They were a mint green that clashes with our other colors. (Note iDye has this product for natural fabrics and a different dye for polyester and nylon blends.) Anyway, I took the plunge hoping for the best. I decided to do the entire sheet set at one time and diligently followed the instructions that came with the dye. I used a top-load washing machine and two packets of dye (based on the weight of sheet set). Since the fabric needed to be pre-wetted, I simply washed the sheets first and set them aside. Then I turned the temperature up on our hot water heater and gave it time to heat - this might not be necessary, but the instructions make it clear that you need very hot water. Then, I filled the machine to medium load (normally I wash them on high load, but this was just enough room for them to move freely). I added the two soluble dye packets and let them agitate for 30 seconds, added 1-1/2 cups of Morton Plain Salt (non-iodized), and added the sheet set. I extended the dyeing time to 60 minutes, per the instructions for better fixation, by resetting the wash cycle several times before it drained to move to the rinse cycle. After that, I let the cycle complete and washed the sheet set from start with a mild detergent in cold water. Then into the dryer. I turned the water heater back to normal and ran a cleaning wash/rinse cycle. I'm providing the detail in case it's helpful. It might seem like a lot, but was actually quite simple. The sheets are now back on the bed - they look and feel great. I don't expect any trouble, but I'll add info if something goes wrong as we use and wash the sheets. Finally, I had to answer some questions about this "toy" - since the dye is sold by a toy store and fulfilled by Amazon. I picked the highest ratings, but have nothing to do with the toy questions.

The color quality is amazing! The first shirt was a tester so I would know how long to steep the clothes for. It came out a bit splotchy because I didn’t stir it in the pot often enough and I think the water was too hot. It was a white shirt with blue stripes and after boiling for 15 minutes it came out very opaque but a tiny bit splotchy. Second shirt was in the pot for just a few minutes and came out great. No smell and very fast dye job.

Not a fan of them putting a sticker on the back packaging. Took me 5 min to get enough of it off to read. I decided to do stove top Method and it worked out pretty well. There are some spots that didn't dye but I'm pretty sure that's bc I couldn't mix it in my pot well (too small a pot). I'll cover them with stuff anyways. This was a cotton canvas bag.

I was rather surprised with the ease of use of this product. Its depth of color was excellent also. It did leave the fabric with a weird smell but I would think that might be expected and maybe a few washes will get rid of it but not the color.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: This company was the only company who sold the color I needed. Value for money: The quality was satisfactory however, I needed a product that was a heavier duty application. Functionality: This product did not cover my bleach stain on my olive dress. Washability: This product did not leave behind residue in the washer. Quality: I found the quality was not sufficient to cover the bleach stain on my dress. I would love to give it another try but am not willing to fork over another $7 only to find it doesn't work again. Stain resistance: N/A

This is the best dad that I’ve used to date. I’ve died multiple articles of clothing using other brands, but this one seems to die the fabric quicker and it lasts longer.

I was very disappointed with this dye. It turned out to be a very different color than the picture shown on the package. I dyed a crinkled cotton dress that had faded hoping to bring it back to it's original color. most colors called olive green today are a vibrant bright yellowish green, as was my dress. This dye is a drab tannish green the color of a WW 2 army tent. won't ever buy this brand again. The dye is not the color shown on the package.Total waste of money!

I love the color, my linen duvet needed a refresher and I’m very happy with it. It’s also very easy to use.

Absolutely brilliant just through the packet in with the wet garment and it the wash on, brilliant turn out, colour exactly as on pkt well the olive green that I choose so now getting chartreuse for another pair to colour from beige. Fully recommend.

The Dye has done a great job for my fitted sheet that I accidentally put some bleach on :( . The fitted sheet was an expensive buy and I thought I will just have to donate it until I browsed here and saw this dye, I tried and its sooo perfect!!!!

Debería especificar en el anuncio que es para lavadoras de carga superior. Es un producto americano y allí las lavadoras son así, pero no tienen por qué serlo en el resto del mundo.

EST dye I have ever used
