Jacquard Procion MX Fiber Reactive Dye - Professional-Grade Fabric Dye for Brilliant, Long-Lasting Color

Joel On Design: I like my jeans jet black, and over time they start to fade from washing and use. Used this black dye with jacquard products soda ash, stirred every 15 minutes, about 1/2 cup of salt for two pairs of jeans and after 90 minutes, took out and rinsed and ran through washing machine. They came out well. The dye sets very well with the soda ash, which is sold separately. Don’t get me wrong , it is a pain to do lol, and will stain your hands if it gets under your gloves. but it was something to learn how to do I was interested in, so if your in the same boat, I’d say go for it. Note that you have to die natural fibers, even if it’s a polyester blend with cotton it will not work well and isn’t worth doing as I try to sample peace and it didn’t dye well with the cotton poly blend.

GggirlgeekGggirlgeek: My 100% cotton, lightest blue, duvet cover turned out gorgeous. It's now dark indigo (it's a bit bluer and darker than these phone pics with flash.) I had a half bottle of black liquid RIT dye sitting around so I added it to the mix, with this navy blue powder, because I wanted to make sure it came out dark enough. I thought it was going to come out dark ashy blue but I guess the RIT has some red in it. I did see red specks rinsing down the sides of my mixing bucket during prep so I'm not sure if it was from this powder or the liquid RIT. I'm OK with that because it's the original color I wanted. I just decided to go dark blue because I figured I'd have to buy 2 or 3 colors to get this beautiful dark indigo.

It had yellowed from sweat, and it even had blood stains from old injuries on it. I used peroxide and ammonia and Persil, in cold water to lighten those. Then I washed it in hot water, with a bunch of Borax, soda Ash, 1 cup of salt (good for blood and protein,) and more Persil. That, surprisingly, got the old blood stains to fade the most, and the yellowed skin residue was almost unnoticeable -- should have done it a long time ago. I left the cover wet and started on my...

Anna of Owlcats: The dye is a lovely shade of true purple, but I can't understand why it's so expensive as you can mix the same hue from the primaries. Won't be re-buying for this reason.

Florence: Took little time to use, colour was very pretty. Recommends you use with soda ash, we did not do this and it turned out fine

Tania: Always use cold water to make the dye. It’s beautiful. I also like to leave my dyes and come back another time. All this great product needs is a few shakes and ready to go as it was when I made it.

wendy bird: I wear only black and only natural fibres. Re-dying my clothes is a must for their longevity. This product did wonderfully when paired with the suggested fixer! Did have a hard time diying vintage white lace. The lace never came out true black. Even after two diyings. But because it’s fibre content is not known to me. I can’t expect perfect results with this product.
I will buy this again and continue to use it on all my natural fibre clothing!
Also this product is usually sold in tiny jars for way more! I bought one of said jars to compare results. This bulk product works exactly the same. Unless you only need to dye one small item, once. I would suggest this bulk option to you!!!!

Jaochim Cook: Like many others who have left lower or negative reviews, I also did not have the greatest results at first. After trying twice on a set of linen clothes the best I got was a darker blue-grey tint; both times stirring and leaving it in the dye bath for several hours. I didn't have any soda ash, but the instructions suggested that salt could be used as an alternative. I didn't have any luck with that.
I decided to give it one more try and picked up soda ash, and also white vinegar (for setting the color in natural fabrics) which had been suggested by another reviewer.
I soaked and aggitated the clothes in warm water with some soda ash.
I boiled a large pot of water and added a cup of soda, poured that into the dye bath, added the wetted clothes, and stirred for 15 minutes. I let it sit for 1 hour (I don't know if it was necessary), then stirred again for 15 minutes.
After the second stir I pulled the cloth out of the bath and squeezed out as much dye water as possible before putting them in another 5-gal bucket filled with 2 gal of white vinegar. I stirred that for another 15 minutes, then put them into the wash machine.
This was the magic formula - I could tell...

Dan/TraceyDan/Tracey: The yellow dye didn’t do hardly anything to the all white scrunchies and headbands as soon as I washed them the colour all came out followed the instructions waste of money . Started off they were super yellow which was perfect but the minute I rinsed everything came out
