Dylon Washing Machine Fabric Dye Pod for Clothes & Soft Furnishings, 350g – Emerald Green

I used this to dye a rayon challis dress I didn't love. I wanted to use my high efficiency top loader machine but wasn't sure it would work as this product is intended for water efficient front loaders. Per the instructions I wetted the dress before putting it in the washer and starting the machine. Mine has a weight sensor to determine the water level, so once the dress was covered by an inch or two of water, I dumped the contents of the dye pod (without the pod itself) in, let the cycle run, and followed the rest of the instructions as written. I'm really happy with the final color. The dye is very evenly distributed and there was no mess in my machine. The only downside is that it was a bit pricey (especially for a single dress). As a natural (albeit heavily processed) fiber, rayon takes dye really well. However sewing thread is typically polyester and does not. I can see the white thread on my dress, but I am not too concerned. Just be aware!

It has been so long since I have dyed anything. I was skeptical about washer dying but I did try it and I was amazed. There is no trace of dye anywhere in the machine. I dyed a king size cotton chenille bedspread. I bought the Emerald Green color. It’s not that color but is a beautiful color that I love. I would suggest 2 or 3 containers to get the emerald green on a king size bedspread. And, the color is even.. no splotches anywhere. I have a washer where I can bipass the HE water level (HE uses only a few inches of water) I filled the tub 3/4 full of water and followed the instructions. ***** stars

I am SO disappointed that I spent $20 to ruin my clothes. I followed all instructions and my clothes turned out splotchy. Of course, you can’t get a refund if you don’t return the product and I obviously can’t return it. DO NOT PURCHASE

I ended up with mint green. Should have taken a photo but I've already got the clothing item in the wash with rit dye and we'll see how it comes out.

I have teal pants that I love. They have become faded and I hoped this would bring them back to life. They didn’t. Look exactly the same.

Made a slight colour change to a seat cushion cover - too expensive.

Excelente

J utilise tjs cette marque . Elle est facile d emploi et les couleurs sont vraiment jolies. Elles tiennent bien dans le temps et sont capables de teinter un bonne quantité de linge. J adore teinter du linge ancien acheté en vide grenier.

Fab! Have purchased a few. It’s great for refreshing older sheets and towels. So easy to use - no mess - and completely changes them, new life into old.

I have a jumper that I absolutely love that needed brightening up. This worked a dream.

I’ve purchased this product to dye a white bikini which has gone grey over time, so not much fabric to dye. The colour that has come out is much lighter than emerald and someway off that shade as well. It is something I’d call Caribbean or Tiffany blue / turquoise / fluorescent blue. I like it but it’s different from what I expected and some parts are a bit darker even though I followed the instructions to the T. I appreciate synthetic fabrics don’t absorb dye the same way as natural fabrics.

Colour is exactly as seen on the container; easy to use and vibrant colour. The downside was that the thread did not dye, so there are areas were the old white colour is visible. I am considering getting a sharpie and trying to colour in the missed bits that are very visible. Check what your thread is made off before dying; I thought my dress had cotton thread.
