Review on πŸ–€ 8 oz Jar of Jacquard Acid Dye for Wool, Silk, and Protein Fibers - Concentrated Powder in Jet Black 639 Shade by Denise Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent quality

Possibly the best dye on the market. Used it on a very expensive handmade Thai silk kimono ($500+). The kimono used to be bright orange and brownish. Too light for me. This turned the silk a nice rich brownish-black color. Amazing result. Fair warning: cover everything. I mean all plastic wraps. Walls, counters, hearth. Wear gloves and only black clothing. THIS WILL LOAD ALL. Only acetone will remove stains. Don't be a fucking hero. COVER EVERYTHING. After that it took me about 2 hours to clean up. I washed the fabric in the bath until it was almost transparent and then ran it in the washing machine about 5-6 times. The results are amazing. No bleeding (I have a white sofa bed so bleeding was a thing of the past. When rinsing things in the tub you will need to use acetone to remove the ring. Only use stainless steel pots for staining. Follow T. and um's instructions For godsake don't put this in the washing machine you will wash it for days afterwards Not recommended for already dark/light colors but works great on silk.

Pros
  • Excellent price
Cons
  • Expensive
