Dylon All-in-1 Dye Pod - Tulip Red

Dylon Fabric Dye Pods are suitable for natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, and viscose. Fabric mixes with synthetics will dye to lighter shades, but pure synthetics like polyester, acrylic, or nylon will not dye.

One Dylon Fabric Dye Pod will dye up to 600g of fabric to its full, advertised shade. For lighter shades, it can dye up to 1.8kg of fabric.

No, the Dylon All-In-One Machine Dye pod contains both the dye and the salt (fixative), so you do not need to add anything extra. It's an all-in-one solution.

No, Dylon Fabric Dye Pods are designed not to stain your washing machine. After the dyeing cycle, you must run a second full wash cycle (30°C or 40°C) with your usual detergent to rinse the fabric and thoroughly clean the machine. For extra peace of mind, you can run an empty hot wash with a machine cleaner.

You should run the dye cycle at either 30°C or 40°C. Do not use economy, pre-wash, or half-load settings.

Yes, you can dye fabric that is already colored. However, the original color of the fabric will mix with the dye color, potentially resulting in a different final shade than expected. For instance, dyeing a blue fabric with 'Tulip Red' might result in a purple shade.

Yes, it is recommended to wash the fabric thoroughly before dyeing to ensure it is clean and free of stains or finishes that might impede dye absorption. The fabric should be damp when you place it in the washing machine for dyeing.

Ensure the fabric was clean and damp before dyeing. Check that the fabric type is suitable (cotton, linen, viscose) and not pure synthetic. Make sure the fabric was distributed evenly in the machine drum and not overloaded. Verify the correct water temperature (30°C or 40°C) was used for the dye cycle.

Check the fabric composition; blends with synthetics will result in lighter shades. Also, verify the fabric weight; one pod dyes 600g to full shade, but larger amounts up to 1.8kg will result in lighter shades. The original color of the fabric also affects the final shade.

After the dye cycle, always run a second full wash cycle (30°C or 40°C) with regular laundry detergent and no fabric to thoroughly clean the machine. You can also run an empty hot wash with a machine cleaner for extra assurance before washing light-colored laundry.

This often occurs if the fabric was not thoroughly damp before dyeing, or if it was tangled or not evenly spread in the machine drum. Ensure the pod was placed correctly and the machine had enough space for the fabric to move freely during the cycle.
