Jacquard iDye Poly Black

Product Information

Make sure you put a dust mask on before you open the jar of dye. Most powder dyes are lung irritants. Set your machine to its hottest, longest wash. If there’s an eco setting available, you can use this as it will cycle the same water through the machine instead of draining and using fresh water, which will prolong the time your fabric is in the dye. Once the dye is dissolved, add the salt and allow it to dissolve and mix thoroughly. You can agitate the washing machine to assist in the dissolving process. After this has dissolved, add the cup of pre-mixed dye in the same way – pushing the jeans to the side to avoid pouring on them directly. This helps to avoid dark splotches. Mix thoroughly. You can swish a bit of extra hot water in your dye cup and add it to your dye bath to make sure you get it all. Step 6: Stir frequently until the dye is absorbed. Turn off the heat. Also entweder haben die schlecht Bewertenden etwas bei der Anwendung verpatzt oder das Material war nicht 100% Polyester. Ich bin absolut zufrieden und kann diese Farbe total empfehlen!

Consider ‘overdye’.If you want to achieve colors with some fun textures and depth, try creating, say, a purple by dyeing your fabric red first and then blue. This often yields different results than mixing blue and red together and it can be gorgeous.With any method, the critical thing to remember when dyeing jeans is agitation. Denim is a densely woven fabric, so the dye is already going to have a harder time penetrating the fibers than it would with, say, a loosely woven silk. Additionally, denim gets quite stiff when it’s wet which makes it harder to manipulate the fabric to ensure the dye is absorbed evenly. Dyeing jeans with any method will require a period of constant babysitting – stirring and manipulating the fabric in the dye pot to ensure it’s absorbed evenly. Make sure you’re using a pot that’s large enough for the jeans to swim freely, and make sure you’re wearing comfortable standing shoes (or you have a cushy foam rug to stand on) – you’ll be stirring and agitating for between half an hour to an hour. After this critical first hour, you can stir occasionally, but constant agitation is key for an even dye bath in the first hour. Natural dyeing is a fun option to explore, but it takes longer and requires specialist equipment and mordanting chemicals. Supplies Next add the dye, being careful not to pour directly on the fabric as this can cause dark spots. Step 5: Stir frequently until the dye is absorbed Mordant for plant fibers, a note: Generally, plant fibers are mordanted with a tannin followed by the dyestuff, but our walnut husks are already extremely tannin-rich, so we’re essentially mordanting and dyeing all at once!

Vorab: Ich verstehe die teilweise schlechten Bewertungen gar nicht und kann mir nur vorstellen, dass es Anwendungsfehler waren. Ich bin wie folgt vorgegangen: Ich habe warmes Wasser in einen großen Topf gegeben, beide Produktkomponenten aufgelöst und direkt die Bluse (100% Polyester) mit hinein gegeben. Den Herd aber ich auf die höchste Stufe gestellt. Als das Wasser anfing zu köcheln, habe ich die Temperatur auf 3/4 runter gestellt und alles eine Stunde köcheln lassen, während ich dauerhaft gerührt habe. (Zieht dabei am besten Handschuhe an und nehmt einen Kochlöffel, den ihr danach nicht vermissen werdet.) Anschließend habe ich die Bluse ganz normal bei 40 °C gewaschen.

Follow the process in steps 3-4, using 4 teaspoons of alum per 100g of fabric, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of washing soda (soda ash). This is not required in all instances, but useful if you’re not seeing the results you want.

You’ll want to pay extra attention to the dye bath (agitating constantly and monitoring the temperature) for the first hour, but after that you can taper off, turning down the heat and stirring less frequently for a few hours. You can turn off the heat and allow it to sit overnight if required. Jeans are quite a mission to stir when they’re wet – the fabric gets stiff and tends to crease, so be sure to pay extra attention to ‘spreading out’ the jeans in the water and making sure they’re submerged. Step 7: Remove your jeans from the pot and rinseAdd pre-wetted garments or fabric and bring to a rolling boil. Maintain temperature and stir frequently for ½ to 1 hour. For uniform colour, use constant agitation. If your jeans are dark blue– the traditional denim color – they’ll likely have a bluish tinge to them even after you’ve dyed them. You can help combat this by adding orange to counteract the base blue. If they’re a more faded blue, this becomes less necessary but the choice is yours. Naturally dyed jeans will have the most varied results. In theory, the walnut dye should be quite permanent, but there are multiple factors at play here, including how fresh the factory dye bath was (these chemicals can impact the natural dye results), what kind of metal is used for the hardware, and whether the jeans have any stains – and that’s in addition to all the other things that can impact a natural dye bath, like the pH of your water and the material your dye pot is made from! Your mileage with your individual jeans may vary. For the best results, choose jeans that have been well-washed (in hot water with a scouring agent, if possible) and that are older and more worn-in because their previous dye treatment will have less of an impact on the natural dye this way.

Fill a stainless steel or enamel pot with just enough warm water for the fabric to move freely. Turn heat on medium. Remove fabric from water.A cookie set by YouTube to measure bandwidth that determines whether the user gets the new or old player interface.

Depending on your fabric, you may wish to follow the in-sink rinse with a run through the washing machine, or even just pop it in for a spin cycle. For cotton, linen and rayon dissolve one cup (237 ml) of salt in a little hot water and add to dye bath. For silk and wool add a third of a cup (78 ml) of white vinegar instead of salt. Avoid pouring directly onto fabric. Shuffle your fabric to the side with your tongs or spoon so you’re not pouring directly on the fabric. Mix thoroughly. PRODUCTS CARRIED: Droppers, Dye Bottles, iDye (Natural/Poly), Plastic Tips, Syringes, Transfer PaperFinally, I’d recommend at least one run through your washing machine alone (without anything you’re worried about staining) to be sure all the dye has washed out. Whether or not you choose to use fixative, the final step is, as above, to run an entire regular hot wash with detergent to wash the excess dye out of your jeans. Most traditional denim is blue but occasionally you’ll find them in different colors. No matter what color your jeans are, the starting color will impact the finished product, even if only a little bit. Most dye instructions and recommended quantities assume you’re starting with a white fabric which will rarely be the case with jeans, so there are a few accommodations you may need to make for your project.
