Rit Dye Powder-golden Yellow

Perfect !

Dyed a 100% cotton button down shirt and the color came out strong and vibrant.

As advertused

Use Golden Yellow and Royal Blue - and have for years - so easy to do - 3 5 gallon buckets - hot water to wet clothes - hot water to die - warm to rinse - bring pot of water to boil to dissolve dye with 1 cup salt and 1 tb dish detergent - add to hot water bath. 1. clothing 2. put in dye bath wearing rubber gloves - color will take immediately - leave it in for 5 or 10 or longer - rinse in warm water bucket. Very easy - nice color you do not see enough. Very easy to do.

I’ve only dyed fabric a handful of times and this was easy to use. I used this to dye fabric that was a mix of nylon/lycra and spandex. This fabric can be difficult to dye so I also used Rit’s Color Fixative. I needed this exact color, not pastel, not neon, golden. The fabric cane out beautifully and true to color. I’m very happy with the result.

Description on amazon says All purpose, easy-to-use dye can be safely used to color almost all fabrics as well as wood, wicker, paper and plastic. Back of the box (which is not pictured on amazon; Ive included photo) says: Not recommended for 100% polyester, acrylic, acetate, fiberglass or metallic fibers, or fabrics with special finishes, rubber backing, washable only in cold water or labeled Dry Clean Only. While it would be reasonable to assume this might not work on fiberglass, metallic fibers, or special finishes, it is extremely misleading to say the dye will work on almost all fabrics when it is not recommended for such common fabrics as polyester, acrylic, acetate, or those items that are washable only in cold water or dry clean only. I bought this specifically to dye a polyester item, so it looks like this wont work for my purposes.

Very easy to use. Very fast shipping.

Didn’t know I would need salt or vinegar to go with this product. It would have been helpful to know so so I could have it in hand.

As expected. Rit makes a good quality product.

Great product!
