Dyeing clothes changing colour.

Really like how that turned out @seawolf
Have you used their dye before this? Felt like information overload when I went to their site to try to figure out the process and things needed compared to the rit dye.

[seawolf]

@pechelman thanks! Yeah, I did a bunch of tie-dyeing during lockdown and got pretty familiar with their products. It’s not as complicated as it seems. Dissolve some soda ash in water and either soak your item in the soda ash solution or go ahead and add the dye as well (like I did in the pics above) to do it all at once. Let it sit for 30-60 minutes and you’re done!

91 bleached and pink overdyed. Difficult to get the colour right on the foto, IRL it's most like the sleeve pic.
I like it a lot. ️

Finally got around to dying my white 1600. Used the Dharma Trading Procion “Sea Glass” color.
Color came out smooth and even across the shirt. Super happy with it.

Heck yeah!

@Mizmazzle hell yeah man those came out great. I love these dharma dyes, I have a million of them.

Hot damn that looks great. Wish I had seen this before selling my white corduroy. It would have looked sick this color. Well done man!

[Mizmazzle]

Thanks, boys! I practiced on another white tee first to make sure i didn't botch things on my 1600. Both came out really even and natural looking. The bucket method is a bit time consuming, as I did one at at time, but it was a fun project.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle well they came out looking great. Did the dyeing process involve super hot water?

[Oaktavia]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot said in Dyeing clothes changing colour.:

Heck yeah!

Came here to say this.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT I only dyed the white 1600. The green and black one are OG and just for reference.

I just used luke warm tap water to mix the dye and fill the bucket. Then I machine washed on warm after the dying was complete. I was a little worried about shrink, but I noticed none.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle good to know. I had toyed with dyeing the cord shirt but worried it would take super hot water and shrink an already snug shirt.
