Jacquard iDye Poly with Color Intensifier for Polyester, Nylon, Acrylic & Plastic, No Mess Stovetop Dye for Synthetic Fabrics, Wigs, Resin, 3D Prints, Plastics, & More, Kelly Green 14g

This was super easy to do. I used an old soup pot and wooden spoon that I planned on discarding after, and boiled it outside on the propane grill (ours has a burner addition) for about 25 minutes. When it was done, I transferred it to a 5 gallon bucket full of cold water and took it inside to rinse in my stainless steel sink. I avoided all staining this way. Nothing was stained and no mess!I chose to dye the light pink dress in the photos because I felt it washed me out since I have very light skin. I wanted a color closer to another dress I own (the hot pink one I compare the "after" to in one of the photos). It didn't quite get to that bright, hot pink I wanted, as the dye has a more purplish pink hue. I was worried if I boiled longer it would get darker and darker instead of a brighter pink. I am happy with the results, but if you are going for a really bright pink maybe choose a different dye. This one seems to do a deeper, purplish pink rather than a bright pink. It dyed everything evenly. The photos struggle to represent the color accurately, but good enough. Oh, also, the floral design it had before completely disappeared lol. Now it is all the same color. So, keep that in mind too, if you are dyeing something with prints or designs, it may all get dyed the same color. Oh well!

This is very good dye. It's easy to use and doesn't stain anything except what you're dying. Apparently doesn't bleed, either. Using this was a much more pleasant experience than my last attempt at dying something with RIT.That said, I was trying to dye some ugly light green cotton/poly curtains a darker, prettier shade, and while they look much better now, they didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted. But that was probably on me, not the dye.Because I didn't have a big enough pot for the stovetop method, I used a front-loading washer. It says on the Jacquard website that you can do this, but my experience is that it's not recommended, at least not with big items like curtains. Supposedly the amount of dye was appropriate for two 84" panels, but I don't think there was enough water in the washer. Also, it was impossible to keep the water as hot as it should be. I have my hot water heater turned up all the way and also threw at least 8 quarts of boiling water into the washer, but it needs to be that hot for at least 1/2 hour of agitation and I don't think it was. Perhaps if my item had been smaller so it moved more freely in the water, the temp wouldn't have mattered so much. But whatever, I think my curtains would have been darker if I'd had more water and/or hotter water. Darker is what I wanted.It also didn't smell nearly as bad as some reviewers indicated. There *is* an odor, and I think it gave me a mild episodic headache, but it's not anywhere near overwhelming as long as you have your windows open and a decent cross breeze. Perhaps the really negative reviews about the odor were from people who couldn't or didn't open their windows, or maybe who have severe chemical sensitivities. In the past the odor might have bothered me a lot, but since I've improved my health my sensitivity to odors has remarkably diminished. So I didn't find it troublesome.I was very happy to find that there was no green residue left in my washer. I washed some old green and blue things (stuff that no longer bleeds) right after I got done with the curtains, and also threw a snow-white rag in there to see if there was any staining or residual dye left in the machine. Not a bit.So I consider this product a win.What I'm going to do is get a bigger pot and two packets of dye and try again, stovetop, following the directions precisely, doing only one curtain panel at a time. I liked this product enough to try again.My main quibble doesn't have to do with the product itself but with the Amazon listing. In Amazon product description it says for "100% natural fabrics", but then the picture of the product is of iDye Poly, which is only for synthetic fabrics or blends. I asked the seller a question on Amazon, which went unanswered. Decided to buy anyway, and what I actually received was iDye Poly, which would not have worked if I'd had 100% natural fabric like cotton or silk.But for synthetic fabrics and blends, highly recommended!

Started with a very light mint green alpha direct polartec hoodie. The clothing is great, the color was not. I read about how to dye polyester and this seemed like it might be worth a shot. Getting that much water to boil was the hardest part. It was about 50deg outside (have to do this outside, the smell is strong) on a little one burner camping stove. That wasn't going to work. So I tried a propane torch. That added enough heat, but it was kind of scary. Your clothing must stay in the boiling water for at least 1/2 hour. And then it was a little difficult to get the smell out. I rinsed and rinsed and baking soda and vinegar. Finally it it odor free.Pros - it works. your clothing will change color. Cheaper than buying new clothing. mess-freeCons - must be done outdoors. Hard to predict exactly the resulting color. boiling water takes a whileI like this dye and will probably use it again if I want to change the color of a piece of gear

I used this to dye an acrylic sheet. Without the strengthening solution is wasn’t very effective, but with it the dye was incredibly powerful. The dye is very strong. My one complaint is that the color was more fuchsia pink than lilac, and it was highly saturated. The water looked a very dark purple but the acrylic ended up looking very pink. It might look more purple on a different material.

used for dying disc golf. nice purple blue.

if i could give this product 0 stars i would.this was not my first time using a dye like this, but it was my first time with this brand and i will never use it again.i followed the simple directions perfectly and my supposed to be pink fabric came out purple and very splotchy. my fabric was white to begin with and i only left it soaking for 45 minutes.that really isn’t my biggest concern though. the SMELL was absolutely the worst part. the other reviews on are are not exaggerating at all. i am usually not bad when it comes to strong odors, but i think i may have had an extreme sensitivity to this one. although i was in a well ventilated room with windows open and fans on, almost instantly after the steam started i got a terrible migraine and felt extremely light headed. i tried getting fresh air outside and drinking water and taking medicine to try and calm it down but it would not go away. i needed my boyfriend to finish the soaking process and clean up for me because i could not be in the room any longer. i’m not trying to sound dramatic but it really was horrible. i even ended up vomiting several time. it is about three hours later now and i am still feeling very dizzy and nauseous while writing this.i’m sure this isn’t common for most buyers because not a whole lot of reviews say it was this bad for them, but just be extra extra careful when using this product, and i defiantly would not purchase it if you have even the slightest sensitivity to this type of stuff. i will NOT be purchasing this again.

I've used this idyepoly dye a couple times on various pieces of clothing (100% polyester and other synthetics) and it's never once turned any of them pink. The shades I've ended up with have varied from light purple (this was on 85% polyester/15%linen and boiled for only about 5-7 minutes) to a deep magenta-ish maroon (on 100% polyester for 15-20 mins). I tried taking pics but decided there was no point as the shades don't really show up right (that other reviewer's picture up there is not a shade that I've ever gotten out of this dye so i wonder if it's the same in person).Basically, the longer you boil it the darker it comes out. The color your fabric is when wet is pretty much the color it's gonna be dry so you should judge your timing accordingly. And don't worry about boiling polyester; like I've said I've dyed various pieces of clothing with this stuff (and by dyed I mean boiled) cause usually whenever I brew a pot of it I just decide hey why not dye a bunch or other stuff too? And none of it has ever been ruined by the boiling.Oh also, halving the amount of dye you use doesn't really do much. Literally, it seems. The second time I used this stuff i didn't want it so dark so I decided to only use half of the packet of color and I left out the intensifier stuff (it comes with a separate package of noxious liquid "activator" or intensifier or whatever they call it) and all this did was make the color look really washed out and light lilac....like, if you've ever tried to use Rit on synthetics it looked like that, so I just ended up adding the rest of the dye and intensifier but boiled it for only 5 minutes while trying not to gag on the cloud of evil fumes rising off the pot (it came out light purple--the fabric, not the fumes). One other important thing I learned from this? Make sure you dissolve the dye fully before adding your fabric else you'll get streaks!

Works perfectly on 100% Acrylic felt.Materials I used during dyeng process; One 8 quart clean old stainless steel pot with a lid, Laytex gloves, long wooden stirring stick. Then a clean pail after wards to rince out items and later Woolite for washing..Works best if you(1) first bring water to a boil in a large pot you'll never used for cooking.(2) Next add emulsifier into the boiling water(3) Then add in material into the boiling water..NOTE: This product has a very strong odor while it's cooking,so I'd recommend you'd leave all windows open.(4) Place color cube in packet first into In a separate plastic container. Just add in cool water.Let it sit a few minutes in this plastic container..I let it mix blend by itself n the water letting the coloring float up to the surface of the water..(5) Then I carefully poured ONLY the coloring that blended well with the water into the boiling water but NOT the heavy residue that's sitting on the bottom of the container.(6) Afterwards I discarded the heavy residue on the bottom along with the plastic container.Why? Found that by eliminating the thick residue the finished felt did not powder nor did any of the coloring rub off on any surface after it dried!Within 40 minutes the color reached it's peak bright/darkness in the fabric. Did not need the heavy residue!(7) After 40 minutes I took the pot outside and drained out the water carefully into the grass and wearing gloves I carefully removed the felt squares into a clean plastic clean pail to keep rinsing off the excess dye..(8) Kept rinsing each fabric piece till there was no remaining dye left in the water.(9) Repeated rinsing each fabric square in the sink till I was certain there's no further dye run off.(10) Next I washed each square with more water and Woolite and rinsed everything out thoroughly again, and again. NO COLORING WAS LOST on the fabric!(11) Squeezed the water out of the fabric then proceeded to iron each piece with a very hot iron underneath/inside a wet pure linen towel till everything was pressed flat and wrinkle free.End product looked like they were purchased from a store! Clean new and odor free when dried!Wonderful, wonderful, product, HIGHLY recommend!

A good dye very happy with it

Nie zabarwiło tkaniny wcale. Nie polecam. Jak to zareklamować?

Arrived on time, and worked great. This dye is very green though and it wasn't a really flattering colour for a shirt. I had used two older white shirts of my husbands and used this to dye green for a wedding. I doubt he will wear the shirts again, but to no fault of the product. If you are dyeing clothes, just realize that this colour is verrrrrry green.

Ha colorato bene il tessuto sintetico

looks great!!
