Jacquard iDye Fixative 14gm

iDye Fixative is a cationic resin used as a post treatment for dyed fabrics. Use with natural fibers only (cottons, linens, rayon, hemp, etc., and silk and animal fibers). iDye Fixative increases wash fastness, stops bleeding, and helps prevent back staining.

iDye Fixative can also be used with other negatively charged dyes such as Procion MX, Concentrated Vinyl Sulphon, Remazol dyes, and commercially dyed fabrics that may bleed.

• Easy-to-use
• iDye Fixative can be used on most 100% natural fabrics (silk, cotton, linen, rayon).

Not for synthetic fabrics. One 3 fl oz/88 ml jar treats 9-18 lbs/4-8 kg of fabric. One 0.49 fl oz/14 g packet (approximately 1 tablespoon) treats up to 3 lb/1.4 kg of fabric

FOR BEST RESULTS: Prewash garment to remove any sizings, softeners or finishes. While iDye Fixative will aid in wash-fastness, it is recommended to launder dyed fabrics in cold water with like colours.

NOTE: Utensils and pot used for this process should not be used for food.
