Rit DyeMore Liquid Dye, Sandstone

It's a little darker than expected

I needed the dye to age the appearance of a white Lace Jabot into a classic ivory colour, to go for the more Authentic Portrait look. Always have a test piece ready! And remember that you have to use little amounts because white picks up any color quite effortlessly. I only used 2 drops of dye in the pot of water for the first test piece to come out offwhite, I added just a couple more Drops for a deeper hue but the second test piece turned straight up tan so I had to dump water and add more fresh water to dilute the potency of the dye. After only about a 30 second dip into the simmering water, the 3rd test piece was Perfectly Ivory!! I followed the same time with the actual Jabot And Cuffs, rinsed with cold water and I Couldn't be Happier with the results!

Color looks good. Takes a while to absorb color

I used this Rit Sandstone dye on an ivory colored synthetic fiber blanket (from Love Sac) that I had accidentally washed with a grey blanket after which it turned a weird dingy white shade. I prewashed the blanket and followed the instructions, using just 1 bottle of dye for the large blanket. I dissolved the dye in hot water and added it to my washer, which was already full of hot water. I let it mix a bit, then added the blanket, letting the washer run on the hottest cycle. The blanket looked very yellow after the dye cycle, so I washed again on the hottest setting. After that it was less yellow and I'm pleased with the result, although you can see it has a slightly yellow tone compared with the Love Sac ottoman I was trying to match. I think I could have used 3/4 of the bottle, or even 1/2 for a closer match.

I followed the instructions exactly and was a bit worried when it first dried. You can see from the picture the fabric on the left that has more of a pink tint was before the final wash and the fabric on the right that is more true to the color is after the final wash. My fabric was white before dying it. I would say the color is a light version of the color listed on the bottle which is exactly the color I was looking for. I did wash it with some old towels just in case it bled but I am quite happy with it now that the dye has settled. Making a arcane cosplay for my neice and she already loves it.

I purchased “Sandstone” synthetic fiber dye to correct some accidental bleach drips on my tan carpet. The dye has red tones I can’t see in liquid form, but the bleach repair attempts look PINK. I neutralized the bleach before attempting to dye, as prep.

I used this to dye my crocs so that they were a light beige color, they look awesome

Tastes great with Vodka! But wife says it is even better with gin.
