DYLON Hand Dye, Fabric Dye Sachet for Clothes, Soft Furnishings and Projects, 50 g - Ocean Blue

I’m really impressed with DYLON Hand Dye! It was so easy to use and gave my fabric a beautiful, even colour with great coverage. The instructions were clear, the process was straightforward, and the finished result completely refreshed my item and made it look almost new again. The colour came out vibrant and stayed looking great after washing. It’s a fantastic, affordable way to upcycle clothes and fabrics instead of replacing them. I’d definitely recommend DYLON Hand Dye and will be using it again!

Bought this for a sample as I needed to dye some fabric for an event. The sachet states. Only 1 shirt this will dye. I was sceptical as I had never used hand dye previously, but trusted the brand so I gave it a go! So please I did! Excellent product easy to use but it will dye everything it touches so wear gloves and old clothes! I out 2 t shirts in the bucket just to see what the colour quality would be like and then dried in sunlight- it tells you not to do this but I wanted to check the product to make sure it was a bright colour and the colour didn’t fade! Colour is exactly as described but I did leave it 30 minutes longer than suggested. I then put another 3 t shirts in the mixture and left for a few hours stirring occasionally and these also dyed to a very bright pink. Great coverage and you get way more for your money than the instructions suggest. Easy to use but watch your clothes and skin they will stain instantly when they come into contact.

Great, although any post heavy sweating or excessive heat on the garment, quickly turns the dyed product orange in places and causes it to fade again.

Didn't cover up bleach stain.

When the summer arrived and my blue shorts came out of the draw it was obvious that they had become faded over time and needed replacing. There didn’t seem to be any similar quality alternatives available (on line at the time or so it seemed) so I thought that perhaps they could be dyed instead. The shorts themselves were cotton based with white and blue inside banding and white pockets within . I opted to dye them dark blue to restore them to the original colour. Since I was familiar with the name DYLON it was the obvious choice and for six quid , new shorts it was a no brainer. The instructions are on the packet but essentially and ideally what you need is a large plastic storage box type receptacle, although a washing up bowl or your kitchen sink will do, 250 grams of ordinary table/cooking salt , rubber gloves and possibly if you don’t wear specs some form of eye protection. On dyeing day I prepared the plastic box filled it with the prescribed amount of warm water and stirred in the salt and colour dye as per instructions using a plastic kitchen utensil ( the one you use for turning eggs over). You have to pre soak the garment in plain water prior to immersing it in the mixture . Once immersed it is important to regularly stir the pot to make sure that there are no are pockets in the material and that all material is submerged. I found that placing one of those plastic draining board grids on top of the clothing helped to keep it down. After following all this procedure I eventually lifted out the shorts , rinsed them as instructed and then hung them up to dry. I now have new shorts and the good news is that because it doesn’t dye synthetic material, the waste band and pockets remained white as before. I was then left with a storage box full of dark blue water and decided to chance dyeing a pair of similar style beige trousers and see what happened . This left over liquid managed to turn them into a reasonable mid blue colour although the beige buttons and nylon stitching are a bit of a giveaway. However they have now been given a perfect undercoat and would probably go all the way to dark blue next time with a fresh brew. Disposing of the left over liquid is down to your own conscience, but the good news is that the storage box and the egg slice were unscathed. In conclusion you cannot dye every material or expect dramatic colour change or end up with the colour you expect.

Complete waste of time. Used 4 packs on 100% cotton and they never took the dye. Looked as though they did when wet but dried and they are still the same. Base colour was already a light brown. I had the same experience with the Dylon machine dye in this shade on a linen top. I wouldn't waste your money. It does not work.

This stuff is great got my faded jeans back to black

I died a silk dress and a linen+ramie mix trousers. They were both pinkish to start with and this dye turned the dress into a gorgeous vibrant olive green. Not too dark, maybe because on the packet it said it is not meant for silk, so perhaps that's why it didn't turn it too dark, but I actually love it. The trousers that were a strange dark rosy beige to start with, turned brown with this, which makes sense in terms of color mixing. Either way, I love it! It was really easy to use too, I used a small plastic tub, filled it with hot tap water and added some boiling water to make it really hot. I then had some dishwasher salt, that I added for the salt component, and then the dye. I had previously washed both items quickly just by hand with a dash of detergent to make sure I am not leaving any stains and that it would take evenly to the fabric. Gave them a little rinse, then I put both in, and swished them around so they would get evenly coated, and then basically kept swishing them every few minutes. Once it was cooled down enough to go in with gloves, I made sure I squeezed all the air pockets out. Honestly, it turned out better than I expected, no blotches, a nice even color, even if not the exact color I thought they would be, but actually even better.

what is there to say? - good and dependable as per

エンジ色のTシャツを染めてみましたが、黒にはならず黒っぽいエンジになりました。でもいい感じなので気に入ってます。色落ちが気になっていた黒い綿パンはそこそこ黒くなり、違和感なくなりました。ただ染めQのスプレーほど真っ黒にはなりません。あと風呂場の床が黒ずんで落とすのが大変でした。

It worked as I had hoped. I dyed an old grey cotton button down shirt that I bought at the Gap years ago. It turned out well and was easy to use. I am not sure how long the color will last but it seemed to do a good job. It looks good so far.

Great just very expensive!

Es war einfach anzuwenden und hat für eine große Kochschürze ausgereicht.
