Jacquard iDye Lilac Fabric Dye for Textiles Using Natural Fibres14g No Mess Packet

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.

I had a light grey tracksuit that had a sun damage line on it from where I’d left it in the sun to dry. As it was such a light grey I didn’t want to use trusty Dylon as the only grey they offer is a dark grey, too dark for this item and what I wanted. So after spending lots of time researching I found iDye. Found some great results on a similar shade of fabric and the colour was exactly what I was looking for. I have a front loading washer, so I looked on this company’s website and found some what were supposed to be handy tips on front loading washing. It recommended dissolving the dye first in hot water then adding it to the drum. I avoided lots of spins and the pre wash as also recommended and added 237g of salt as recommended. Worth noting as well the tracksuit weighs 800g, so well within the recommended 1.4kgs. The first time washing, there were absolutely no changes what so ever. I should have stopped there. I ran the washing machine a second time as directed. Nothing. A third time saw my tracksuit come out slightly darker but with horrid brown marks all over the place, in the most inconvenient places like for example the underarm, the crotch and the bottom 😫 After thrashing the item in the wash three times, the material has bobbled also. Can not begin to explain how disappointed I am with this product. I’ve had to go ahead and buy the dark grey Dylon to try and cover the brown stains. Ultimately this has ruined my very expensive tracksuit that I was trying to save and I’ve had to spend more to cover the damage. Maybe it’s because I have a front loading machine? Maybe if you have a top loader, the results may be better. However, for me with a 100% cotton item this was an epic fail. I would absolutely not recommend this product and I will not be buying it again, that’s for sure. I have asked for a refund and I hope that this is granted.

Good. Does what it says on the box. Its bright and easy enough to follow instructions but you need to refer to the internet for front loading washing machines as it seems to be made for the american market with its top loaders. With front loading you have to dissolve the dye first and then pour it into the drum slightly defeating the purpose of the soluble no fuss packaging.

Great product, had a white dress that was two fabrics dyed first with Dylan, cotton section jet black but stitching and rest of dress dirty white, then noticed it said polyester, I thought it was just the lining, so bought IDye Poly, worried about the smell and reviews, bought the cheapest pot, boiled the kettle twice,poured it in, then the dye then the enhancer, smell not as strong as painting my nails, so not that bad. It looked jet black on drying a bit more faded but still black, I'm going to buy another packet and do again, to go from white to black is some feat, give his product a chance, I bought the dress in the sale, I love it in white and the shape just wanted a second one in black for Christmas, for those fashionistas its looks a good copy of the designer "Self Potrait" so for 30 quid and the cost of two dyes well worth it

This is Not the same colour that is on the packet I dyed 3 items and they have turn out a horrible vivid yellow

Good and easy to use but doesn't soak into certain sewing threads. Would need to try.

This dye worked fine, not the best, the colour was ok , dark but more greeny than grey. However it took me running my machine 9 times after the dye was added and the rinse wash was preformed on the dyed items. That 9 3hour cycles totalling 27h of washing!!! I put a colour catcher in each wash to see if the dye was still present see photos and I was shocked at the results. After cycle 3 was still grey I added bleach to the drum as stated by the website as a last resort and it turned the grey dye pink! Finally after the 9th cycle the colour catcher came out white. I’ve used Dylon machine dyes in the past and they are more expensive but definitely don’t stay in your machine as long. Thank goodness I didn’t wash my white company sheets in here without 27 h of rinsing!!! Would not recommend will not use it again. It’s cost me a fortune in running costs.

Bought two packets to dye some really faded polyester stroller material for a Phil and Teds explorer. The material had faded to an unsightly purple over the years (was originally black). At first I was a bit worried it wouldn't work as the pram fabric is 100% polyester and waterproof(a big initial concern). An hour in a huge pot of boiling water with two of these packets though, followed by a washing machine cycle to remove any unabsorbed dye got the fabric to almost its original color. Be careful you don't splash any of the dye on any appliances with plastic coatings. A bit of it splashed onto the oven door of my stove and my diswasher and now I have two seemingly permanent small spots on them that nothing I've used can get off. Just be sure to protect any and all plastic, fabric surfaces around the area you're working on and you'll be fine. This dye helped me revive a very faded looking stroller into one that I have since gotten compliments on.

follow instructions and all will be perfect. done in a kitchen sink and (stainless steel) great results. impressed.

Very easy to use, little mess and even coverage of dye on my fabric. Would definitely use again.

Rien à redire : la couleur est top, bien couvrante, pas de taches ni de marbrure... (tout ce vert est destiné à un déguisement de Hulk)

Perfect

I was hesitant about the reviews but guys pull the trigger this was the easiest process ever! My favorite pair of pants got a bleach spot. I followed all directions and they came out beautifully! I love that there is no loose dye! Just through the packet in! You never have to touch any dye. The instructions call for a cup of salt. I used a cup of epson salt I think that made a difference! Color is deep olive. Will buy again in other colors now! Have HE top loader and no residue or color remaining.
