Pre-wash your jeans in hot water and treat any stains. Don’t worry about drying them. Step 2: Measure the dye When you’re ready to finish the dye bath, allow the machine to run a rinse cycle, but add the iDye color fixative to this rinse once the tub has filled to help set the color. Depending on your fabric, you may wish to follow the in-sink rinse with a run through the washing machine, or even just pop it in for a spin cycle.

Fill a stainless steel or enamel pot with just enough water for the fabric to move freely.Turn heat on high.

Pre-wet (or pre-wash) your jeans before you begin. Drying them isn’t necessary, it helps if they’re damp when you add them to the dye bath.

This helps to avoid dark splotches. Mix thoroughly. You can swish a bit of extra hot water in your dye cup and add it to your dye bath to make sure you get it all. Step 6: Stir frequently until the dye is absorbed. Turn off the heat. Turn off heat and allow the dye bath to return to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Rinse when cool enough to handle.

For synthetic fibers, use iDye Poly, which is formulated specifically for polyester, nylon, poly/cotton blends, plastics, and more synthetic options. It can also be used for sublimation transfer techniques and to dye polyester threads used in commercially manufactured garments. Cover your countertops with a sheet of plastic and old newspaper.The plastic will keep everything contained, and the newspaper will absorb anything that does happen to spill. You can wipe the plastic clean and reuse it next time. in some cases, you may choose to post-mordent a plant fiber with Alum at this stage, especially if the color is not already a deep chocolate brown. Follow the process in steps 3-4, using 4 teaspoons of alum per 100g of fabric, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of washing soda (soda ash). This is not required in all instances, but useful if you’re not seeing the results you want.
