Rit DyeMore Liquid Dye, Tropical Teal

Using this for a tye dye project. Always love Rit dye

This dye works if you can submerge the item you are coloring. Does not work well on furniture unless you can submerge it under heat as instructed in directions. Otherwise it is very difficult to get an even color. Used on chairs but they came out uneven in color and light. I used two bottles of dye and the fixative. Gonna try spray paint for an even look. Recommend if you can follow directions.

I was excited to use this product. My outdoor patio set cushions were sun bleached and didn’t want to spend hundreds on new cushions. I had to buy a large 20qt pot and 4 bottles of dye to complete this project. My cushions are polyester, so the directions are much more extensive (as with any synthetic fabrics). I spent about 3.5 hours dying, 40-45 minutes boiling for each set/bottle of dye, which I don’t think was enough. I should’ve let it soak longer. I also did not have a thermometer to know if my temp was at 200°, so I was guessing what was “below boiling.” The directions are very clear, but complicated. Follow the directions and I think there will be no problems. This will definitely last me for this summer, and it has definitely evened out the color, but I was expecting more, but I blame myself for that.

Mine was more of a dark teal because I colored over light peachy gauze material.

RIT dye is reliable for its effectiveness, but the coloring was much darker than displayed on the bottle.

This is literally the best dye for any kind of fabric

Great for simple tie dye projects and the color looks same as the bottle

I used it to dye two phone cases. both of them were crystal clear flexible cases (TPU material). I used 4 teaspoons of Tropical Teal color plus one cup of hot water from a tea kettle in a pyrex dish. I didnt choose stovetop, I was worried it would warp the case. the water cooled as I used it, but it turned out fine. edit: several months later, these cases still look wonderful. the dye never wore off. UPDATE: Ive used the graphite color of this dye for several other projects. success varies depending on what material you use. the items that had a lot of nylon content worked really well, and so did one sweater that was 75% rayon. some socks that were 97% polyester did not take the dye at all. also, the projects where I was refreshing the color worked best -- for example: faded black clothes looked brand new after I refreshed them with graphite dye, but the white clothes I dyed turned out dark grey and slightly uneven. Im not surprised, but figured Id pass that on. basically, the more subtle of a change youre going for, the better. also, consider the fact that mixed materials are going to give you mixed results. for example, thread might not take the dye as much as the rest of the garment.

Love this product. Delivery was quick and efficient. Thank you!!

The bottle came open and the color is looks different
