Wash & Dye Fabric Dye for Clothes & Soft Furnishings - Intense Black / Velvet Black

Dylon Intense Black is a reliable choice for achieving a truly deep black on clothing.As a goth who favours a consistently dark wardrobe, the results were really impressive!The application process was so straightforward. You just put it in the washing machine like a regular wash, and let it do it's thing.The dye effectively revitalised my faded black garments to a rich, intense shade. I even managed to dye a white dress jet black, and it came out perfectly!For those seeking a super simple to use product that delivers a proper, lasting black, this dye is definitely a worthwhile option.Consistent coverage, intense black, and just put it on a wash cycle to apply.I love it!I've included a photo of the dress in question, with how it looked before on the bottom left of the photo.

I though it would not work, but it did and was delighted. Will use again

Bought this to add some more life into my very faded black denim skirt and shorts! My jeans had streaks after only a few washes so wanted to fix this too. They recommend one whole packet for 500g (about one pair of jeans) to full colour but as I was only retouching, I thought I’d add a black top that had a bleach mark on and a green cap I don’t wear as I don’t like the colour too! For reference, these are all a UK size 10.You can see the before and after photos but I’ll summarise below.Shorts & skirt: very impressed with how these turned out! Look brand new!Jeans: you can still see some of the faded streaks from before but they are less obvious and overall I’m pleased. Next time I’ll use a whole packet and just the jeans to get better results.Top: slight improvement on the bleach mark but not enough to wear sadly. It did say on the back of a packet that it could not guarantee fixing bleach stains.Cap: love how this turned out! Really liked how the writing wasn’t affected! Has a green tinge but I did have a few items in the wash. Will dye again another time with other items.The last two photos were taken after an empty wash of the washing machine to clean it. As others have mentioned, it does require a lot of machine washes - once to clean the clothes, then to dye them and then to wash the excess dye out of the clothes and clean the machine. It doesn’t say to run the machine empty to clean it but I did anyway. This can decrease the environmental benefit of not buying new clothes slightly. Even after I put the machine on for a quick wash when it was empty, there was a lot of dye left in the rubber seal which you can see so be warned! I managed to clean this with a paper towel though and then did a dark wash and all of my clothes were fine.Overall good product and I do recommend! Fewer the items the better but as you can see form my pictures you can put quite a few items in and get decent results!I will update my review after a few wears and washes to see how well the dye stays.

Works well

Easy to use and no mess. The instructions recommend not trying to dye too many items as the colour might not be as dark. I had some slightly faded black linen trousers which I wanted to restore to their original dark black. The recommendation was to limit the weight of the fabric to 500g. I had two pairs of black linen trousers, which, together, weighed approximately 600g. I decided to take the risk as the weight was 100g more than recommended. I used the washing machine - put the whole packet of dye in the drum and then the clothing on top. 40 degree wash. The trousers came out perfectly and were restored to an 'intense' black. The advice is to then run the machine empty, with detergent, at 40 degrees to ensure that no residue is left. I was so pleased with the restored colour that I have just purchased more dye - another pack of black and a navy blue to restore the colour of further items of clothing. Great value for money and a much cheaper option than purchasing new trousers. (Unfortunately, I haven't included any photos as I should have taken before and after images).

Dyed faded black chair cover.It has improved the colour considerably but is more dark grey than black.

Great

Terrible item. Don't waste your money.I bought this in hopes of dying a pair of white jeans and a white t-shirt black. I weighed the clothing to make sure it didn't weigh more than 1kg and set the cycle to 40°c. The items came out of the wash patchy, with what looked like ink splotches sprayed across them. I bought another dye just incase it needed another attempt but this made those patches worse. Now I've not only wasted £20 on dye but I've also ruined my clothing.

Il colore è bello vivo e pieno, l'ho usato con un paio di scarpe di tela celestine davanti e ai lati(che avevo già provato a tingere con i pennarelli...son venute pessime), e bianche dietro.Le ho lavate a mano dentro una vaschetta, usando il solito procedimento della tintura a mano, nonostante sia una tintura per lavaggio in lavatrice.Son venute benissimo, l'unico problema sarebbe di farle immergere del tutto nella tintura senza tralasciare nessuna parte e non lasciarle al sole, perciò uscire ad asciugare la sera e riprenderle il giorno dopo prima che il sole possa rovinarle dinuovo.

très bon produit . 2 idem fois que j acheté conforme à mes attente. je le conseille. très bon rapport qualité prix

I have a discoloured chair cushion cover, and I hate the look of it. I bought this product to bring the colour back to life, and it worked like a charm. Very happy with the result.
