DYLON Wash & Dye Instructions
DIRECTIONS
1. Wearing rubber gloves, empty Wash & Dye powder into washing machine drum &
add dry fabric
2. Immediately run 40C cotton cycle without pre-wash or economy setting
3. Add normal washing detergent and run 40C cotton cycle to remove excess dye
from fabric
4. Remove fabric and run final 40C cycle with washing detergent to clean
machine
5. Dry fabric as normal, away from direct sunlight & heat
COLOUR SHADE
The shade will depend on 3 things:
1. FABRIC TYPE:
• Cotton, linen, viscose, will dye to the full shade
• Polyester/cotton & polyester/viscose mixes, will dye to a shade lighter than
this
• Wool, silk, polyester, acrylic, nylon & fabrics with special finishes, e.g.
‘dry-clean only’, cannot be dyed
2. FABRIC AMOUNT:
• Up to 500g fabric (e.g. 1 pair jeans) will dye to the full shade
• A maximum of 1kg can be dyed, to a lighter shade
3. FABRIC COLOUR:
• Colour mixing rules apply, e.g. black dye on red fabric gives burgundy.
Patterned fabric will often still show through
HELPFUL HINTS
• Only dye up to 1kg fabric and always use whole pack, no more, no less
• Dyeing may not cover stains, faded areas or bleach marks
• After dyeing, wash separately for first few washes to remove any excess dye
• Should any dye be left in machine, add cup of household bleach to drum, add
usual detergent & run machine empty on 40C cycle
• Remember polyester stitching will not dye
Dylons promise: This dye won’t damage your machine or affect subsequent washes
