Create Brilliant Color with Rit All-Purpose Powder Dye in Teal

carina: So it definitely works for cotton but for silk not really. I had a white silk dress that turned light purple. Cute! But not what I wanted. Then I finished with a cotton robe and it came out nice blue. I wish it would have colored the dress this nice .

Colleen: What I Used It For:
I decided to breathe new life into a couple of faded black garments that had seen better days. Rit Dye came to the rescue, promising an easy fix for my fashion faux pas.

What I Liked:
Rit Dye Sewing Powdered Fabric in Black is pure magic in a packet! The process was straightforward – dissolve the powder, submerge the fabric, and witness the resurrection of color. The result was deep, rich black that looked even better than the original.

I appreciate the versatility of this dye. It worked seamlessly on various fabrics – from cotton to synthetics. The color was consistent, and the powdered formula allowed for precise control over the shade. The packaging is user-friendly, and the instructions are clear, making it a breeze for even a novice like me.

What Could Be Better:
While the dyeing process itself was a success, the odor is quite strong during application. Make sure to work in a well-ventilated area to avoid feeling overwhelmed by the smell. Additionally, the color may appear darker when wet, so don't panic – it lightens up as it dries.

BeatrixMcG: This is less fuchsia and more like bubblegum pink. I used the whole box on two items of white clothing, and they both came out bubblegum pink. I thought fuchsia meant it would be darker pink. Still, it worked well, this brand is always good.

Manu: Eignet sich gut zusammen mit Aceton und Polyurethan zum authentischen Einfärben von AK47 Holzteilen. Klumpt aber etwas, muss also erst gefiltert werden.

NEUS: He probado otras marcas y esta es la que me ha ido mejor. El negro lo he utilizado para oscurecer una chaqueta tejana azul, cuyo azul no me gustaba mucho, y ha quedado con un tono gris azulado atercipelado que queda muy bien, y todo en un tono regular. Anteriormente la he usado en otros colores en un tejido blanco y los colores quedan perfectos.

Outdoor girl: If you also buy the fixative solution with this and you're dyeing naturals like cotton, wool or linen it works very well. If you want to do synthetic material you will need the product for that. Small side note: If you have a 45/55 cotton/polyester item and you want a color that is not offered for that material like black you are not going to find a solution. It's due to the polyester in some varieties does not take dye well. For the colors they offer for that mix they do work UT you need lots of heat for more time. OK, so I use stove top for all dyeing in a stainless steel 3 gal + pot and not for cooking! Know your item will be darker coming out of pot than expected for the final result. I add fixative when dyeing time is done and continue till finished with that process gently wring then hang outside to dye. Then I wash to see the finished color shade. Very durable If done in this matter and with the proper dye type. Wear old clothing if you are not careful.

RoxyRoxy: This would have come out darker but it was my first go at dyeing & after boiling the water with a cup of salt , then after boiling I then add the dye before adding to a nice sized plastic bucket / drawer I got from Walmart some time ago I was concerned there would not be enough water to cover it so I added additional water to the dyed water from the pot on the stove. I do not recommend the washing machine bc you don’t have the control like you do dying it in the bucket not to mention it’s up to the individual as to how long you want to keep it in there & stirring once in awhile. I am going to post other colors I did as well & the colors came out very rich . —-Also , before dying the fabric I made sure to wash & dry it & then when I was ready to die the fabric I wet each thoroughly with hot water , rung them out and THEN I added the dyed water . Couldn’t be happier !! —-I also must mention the fabric that looks brown? I am confused about even though I do like the color but it was suppose to be GREY! The second lighter brown ( again that was suppose to be grey ) was from the same dyed water that was left over and that’s why it’s so much lighter...

BRtFBRtF: *Jan. 17, 2017: They're starting to slightly fade, but only very slightly. Certainly not any more than a newly purchased pair.

*Apr. 13, 2016: Still no issues with fading, they still look good.

*Jan. 6, 2016: They still look good. I'll stress to wash them separately the first 3-5 times to avoid staining other clothes.

I like how the jeans and shirts I dyed turned out. I should have taken a before picture, but I didn't plan on writing a review until after I finished. The jeans were very faded, almost white at the knees and some permanent dirt stains. I followed the instructions for the most part, but here's what I did, which allowed me to not have to use a cup of salt for each pair of jeans: 3 gallons of 150°F water in a bucket, mixed one cup of salt, 1 packet of navy blue and 1/2 packet of black. The instructions specify one packet per pound of fabric, since these jeans weigh 1.5 pounds, that's right on spec.

I submerged the first pair of jeans in hot clean water first before placing into the dye solution as per Rit's instructions, but I didn't do that for the three subsequent pairs, I can't see any difference in the end result. I left the jeans in the...
