RitDye Powder-Navy Blue, Fabric, Multi, 1

Bit messy but does the job. I dyed a pair of faded shorts - bought them back to life, look as good as new.

I ordered this from the UK. It took a little while to arrive, but on the whole I am pleased with the product. However, the instructions were difficult to use - the ones printed inside the packets were completely illegible (tiny, blurred printing), so I had to go to the RIT website to see what to do. The main problem with the online instructions was the bit about adding the salt and dye in two stages - it is not possible to stop my front loader machine once a programme has begun. So, I compromised and first added the salt to the drum, brushing it through the holes. Then I added the clothes, having prewashed them. Then I closed the machine, dissolved the dye in hot water and added it through the detergent dispenser and set the machine going on a hot wash. As soon as the programme finished I left the clothes in and ran it again, this time with detergent. This seemed to work ok and the clothes were evenly dyed - but I did use 50% more dye than recommended to ensure this.So, it is a good dye but probably not totally worth the hassle of ordering from the US!PS Another instruction that was not clear was whether you should double up on the salt if you used more than one packet of dye. I didn't in the end, and it seemed to work ok.

Really good dye, worked well. Fast delivery

I dyed an old garden seat cover, which had been dark blue, but faded. I put in about half the water to try and get it very dark. Overall its ok, not very dark but better than it was. I would describe it as a slighly faded denim colour, if you want very dark blue, this is NOT it.

i’m unimpressed apart from no meaningful instruction what were there were so small you needed a magnifying glass there was no information about dying times or temperature or guidance on rinsing and the result endend by poor and the garment binned if give zero stars i would done so

Save your money and buy Dylon instead. I dyed two cotton items, one with Dylon and one with Rit. Dylon was quicker, less messy, and the end result was miles better. Rinsing the Rit item took forever and ever and even then I decided to stop after about two dozen rinses as the water never ran clear. The instructions are confusing (and they are on the inside of the cardboard box so you will only see them if you're lucky). The online instructions don't show you how to use the powder dye but after discovering you just mix the powder with some water you realise that the liquid dye is just the pre-mixed dye so you are paying for some water. And to top it they advise you to ruin an old towel when you do the final wash as the dye will still come out. Dylon is so much better.

First time trying this product and had a few items to dye so took my time reading instructions & setting up. Had lovely weather so did the dying outside it was a bit of a faf getting water to the right temperature but doable. All items took the colour well and look great as good as new. I would use again.

Very easy to use and did the job
