Rit Dye Liquid Fabric Dye, 8-Ounce, Violet

True to color, quality similar to other Rit products.

This is a great dye product (an I love the violet color, light-medium purple with a hint of fuchsia would be a close call to my experience/my particular fabric) Easy to use, a bit hard to get out of a washer but it wont fade on to other clothing, providing you clean it after the dye bath. Washer will gradually fade back to normal. The only problem I see with this is that one absolutely MUST (no exceptions) use the after dye bath too - the fixative to keep the dye put, otherwise your clothing will fade, and fade quickly and badly! But, if you buy the dye and the color fixative (color-stay?) along with the dye you will have great results, Ive always had an even dye but I do have my own recipe which includes using BOTH vinegar and salt in the dye bath as well as the small amount of dish detergent (sometimes use laundry detergent) Works well, but make sure you buy the second product. They should offer them together, or at least warn you! Thats my main gripe.

Did not seem anything like Rit Dye I buy in the store - Ive been using Rit Dye for over 20 years - the first half of the bottle was very, very watery. The dye did work, but I definitely felt that half the bottle had been replaced with water.

I used the washer method, let it sit in hot water in the soak cycle, but it completely washed out in the cold rinse even with a bunch of salt in the water! Was it me?
