> 3 dayThe cardboard itself came open, but I think that was more of a warehouse issue than a product packaging issue. I used 6 or 7 of the colors to make 4 long sleeved t-shirts and still a decent amount of dye left. I followed the directions to a T, but the shirts came out a little less vibrant than I was hoping. Cant beat it for the price though. Ill get a better quality dye eventually, but this is great for practice.

> 3 dayKinda fades with first wash. But it is really fun and easy to use. Just add water. Lots of colors and the pigments are pretty. I like the variety and colors, but I don’t like that the guide and instructions are so minimal (just the back of the cardboard) because it doesn’t have enough direction to be able to start without prior knowledge and experience.

> 3 dayThis package was great. I bought a bus tub (like in restaurants) and a strainer (for cooling pizza) at my local restaurant supply store because I wanted a safe container to use to dye in and the diameters were perfect. I only ended up using 8/12 colors to die three 4x Hanes v-neck t-shirts to wear for sleeping. There was plenty of dye even when I only used two bottles per shirt although if it were double, I would have had more vivid colors. I *do* like how the colors came out. I didnt try any of the methods in the kit on techniques but did research looking for examples of what I wanted to beforehand. The plastic tarp sheeting was the perfect size for the space I had (I did this indoors in my laundry room) and I just needed to wrap everything up and toss it in the trash when I was through. Cleanup was a breeze, the dye didnt get on my skin although I used professional latex gloves that I already owned. (I never use the gloves that come with hair dye either.) The only pain about the whole process was the actual rinsing of the t-shirts. I probably had to rinse about a dozen times in cold, another dozen in warm and then perhaps half a dozen in hot to get to a light murky color. I didnt expend more energy to get clear water. The colors have stayed true and I have washed the shirts several times on their own in warm water and with a set of blacks because my fabric softener wasnt getting the t-shirts soft enough.

Greater than one weekIve purchased this kit two years in a row to take with my family to the beach for a rainy day craft project. This kit comes with bottles that are already filled with powdered dye to which you add water to activate, rubber bands for tying, and several pairs of plastic gloves to protect little fingers. You dont have to soak the clothes in soda ash before you dye them, like you do with some kits. Weve had no problems making 5 adult sized t-shirts with extra dye left over using one kit. My kids love the rainbow of bright colors, and after a year of washing weve had no problems with fading. To use at the beach, we lay down plastic garbage bags on the ground, and dye on top of them. After saturating the shirts we roll them up in the plastic garbage bags and leave them in the sun for a few days before rinsing and then washing.
