DYLON Washing Machine Fabric Dye Sachet, Navy Blue, 50g | Machine Dye for Clothes, Soft Furnishings & Projects, Renew Fabrics, up to 600g of Fabric per Pod

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.

Work as it should good value for money

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.

I’ve used Dylon Machine pods with great success in the past. This is the first time I’ve used Dylon hand dye. I used the hand dye because I only had one small item, light in weight and in colour, so it seemed a waste to get a machine pod for such a small item. It was a fail, despite following the instructions exactly. I had tried to dye an XS shirt that was 100% Linen and weighed less than 200g. It was a really evenly light mauve colour originally. So I thought Brown would be a sensible choice to colour it. It was easy enough to do, the instructions are clear. The colour is exactly as shown and really intense, which I am happy with. I really like the colour It’s exactly the colour I had hoped that it would be and the only reason I gave one star, for the colour and for the ease of dying. But ultimately the result came out so patchy and my shirt is currently looking like a tie dye 50 shades of brown. It looks like it’s got faded sweat stains all over it. I’ve tried to capture in a photo, but you can’t quite see the many different shades of brown in the light. It also has black spots all over the place too, despite dissolving the dye powder first in warm water. I wasn’t expecting an amazing result, but what I have got is disappointing. Especially give the item is 100% linen. I do like that the buttons and inside branding tag and machine wash logo stayed pure white. I will now need to buy another packet and dye the shirt again, which is disappointing because I was using the hand dye because I was trying to avoid being excessive for such a small job. I wanted to avoid waste. I would recommend that if you are going to try these sachets, buy two incase anything goes wrong. But, I think for me, I’ll probably stick to the machine pods and wouldn’t buy this again nor would I recommend this product.

Great dye. Arrived really quickly.

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.
