simplicol Fabric Dye Intense Velvet Black | Easy washing machine dyeing | Liquid dye & fixing powder | 1 pack, 150 ml liquid fabric dye + 400 g fixing powder with salt

I have used simplicol machine dyes 4 times (different colours) in the last year. As long as care is taken to follow the instructions e.g items cotton or of other natural origin, weighed (dried weight), washed and spun first no conditioner etc etc I have found them v easy to use. Yes, the washing machine rubber ring gets stained (wipe it down before you dye and again as soon as you can after the process). No I wouldn't do a white wash as my next proper wash 'just in case'. Yes, their colour guidance is pretty spot-on (check dylon 'mango orange' photos if you want an example of two very different colour oranges - from the same pack it would seem! Of no use to the dyer at all..) I am now in the marketplace again for dye. I shall stick with simplicol... P.S one problem that applies to ANY dye. If the stitching on your garment is a polycotton blend (often) that will not dye to the depth of colour that the rest of your garment does. It's v annoying but there's little you can do about it. Should it be 100% polyester stitching (common again) then it won't dye at all and you'll have original colour stitching (white?) with, say, a dark blue material.. Frustrating.

I've just decorated room and thought rather than fork out for a new throw I'd used this product to dye this RED throw ELEGANT GREY. That was a joke! I previously have used Dylon without any problems as I've never heard of Simplicol thought I'd give it a try thinking how different could they be . Boy was I wrong. I followed the simple instructions open both products put in machine with item on a 40* wash. I am beyond disappointed as the throw came out exactly the same colour it was originally RED. £4.38 wasted! I'LL STICK WITH DYLON. If I could give zero I would.

I've used this dye, just put the dry fabric in the washing machine, I put in just over 700 gm of fabric (the instructions say 600 gm for best results) and the white cotton has come out exactly the colour on the box. It was very easy to use, Other machine dyes that I have used have said to put damp clothes in to dye, Simplicol does not specify this which makes it easier, although it does say to wash before use if the fabric has had fabric conditioner used on it, I guess that this may prevent penetration of the dye. The plastic bottle of dye just has to have the top taken off and the whole thing goes in the machine on top of the fabric, along with the packet of salt which just needs to have the top of the packet cut open. I set my washing machine for a regular 40 degree wash (no pre-wash) and like I said, i'm very happy with the results. A quick wash recommended after dyeing to make sure no residue on the fabric or the machine. There is no chemical smell and the dye is non toxic.I will certainly buy this product again.

I didn’t love or hate this product to be totally honest. I have used fabric dyes loads of times but I have always stuck to the more commonly known UK brand. By comparison I thought the instructions were not particularly clear, it was only when it was already mid wash that I saw in other reviews that people have recommended to puncture the capsule to allow a more even colour outcome so that was irritating. Colour wise it was a decent result albeit more of a blue / grey than I expected but it was a relatively even final colour. On the whole I would probably stick with my usual brand in future but not a bad purchase.

The dye was just the colour I was looking for

Ignore any negative feedback on this product. The finished result will only ever be as good as the condition of the original item. I dyed 2 sofa covers and all the cushions and the results were nothing less than awesome. Do follow the instructions. Weigh them wash your items and use the right amount of dye. Please note that no brand of dye will cover bleach marks or stains. Don't blame the product if this happens. I will definitely use it again. Great colour range. So easy to use.

First off beware, instructions say use two boxes per load, I didn't know this until I came to dye the items I wanted to colour so I had to buy a second box. Pack contains 1 packet of dye and 1 bottle of colour fixer. Easy and straightforward to use and I am happy with the results on most of the dyed items. However packet says it will dye every fabric combination. It doesn't! One item I wanted to colour was 100% man made fabrics and the colour didn't take so be careful if you want to dye viscose for instance. Other than that it's a stunning colour and I'm very happy.

Bought this to dye my sofa cover as it stated it could be able to. Used two packs on it according to the weight advised on pack. During the wash it looked like it had a good covering all over. But at the end of the load the colour appeared to have wash off completely. On examination I noticed random staining on my cover where it had dyed in random streaks but not very well. I then noticed that the fixative (salt packs) were still full, despite me cutting along the lines as advised in the instructions. Very unhappy with this product. Once washed it appeared back the exact same colour it started. Would not recommend

Compré esa marca de la tinta ya tercera vez y me mola el color y fácil de usar

Ich habe zum ersten Mal Bettwäsche selbst gefärbt in der Waschmaschine und muss sagen, dass ich zunächst durch einige negative Bewertungen etwas Angst hatte meine Waschmaschine sprichwörtlich zu versauen. Allerdings kann ich dies nicht bestätigen. Die Farbe ist wie abgebildet, dass Ergebnis einfach nur klasse. Im Anschluss an den Färbevorgang habe ich die Bettwäsche nochmals durchgewaschen, im Anschluss daran den Gummi der Maschine abgewischt und die Waschmaschine nochmals leer durchlaufen lassen. Die darin befindlichen Farbfangtücher haben sich nicht verfäbrt, also hätte ich mir den Leerlauf der Maschine eigentlich sparen können. Ich habe zwei paar Kissen und Bettbezüge auf einmal gefärbt und hierfür einen Doppelpack Farbe verwendet. Perfektes Ergebnis. Durch unsere Begeisterung haben wir gleich noch eine andere Farbe bestellt und werden das nächste paar Bettwäsche färben.

Ho tinto due capi nuovi e avevo molta paura di non ottenere un buon risultato, ma invece è andato tutto bene. Prima li ho lavati con abbondante acqua calda e sapone neutro per togliere eventuali appretti, poi li ho inseriti nella lavatrice con il fissatore. Ho avviato il lavaggio a 40°e, dopo 5 minuti, ho versato la tintura diluita in acqua nella vaschetta del detersivo. Così com'era consigliato nelle istruzioni. I bermuda erano di un rosso sbiadito, tessuto misto viscosa e lyocell. Il top di puro lino bianco. Nonostante una lieve differenza tra le due colorazioni, direi che il risultato è eccellente.
