Factors that affect the colour results

The current colour of the fabric

The colour result will depend on the different colours mixed. For example, dyeing a green shirt with a Tulip Red DYLON Pod, will give a brown result. Please see the colour mixing guide on the left.

The type of fabric

Cotton, linen and viscose are perfect for dyeing. Synthetic fabrics like polyester and nylon won’t dye. Mixes of synthetics with cotton, linen and viscose will achieve a lighter shade of the colour.

The weight of fabric

One pod is enough to dye 600g of fabric to the full shade or up to 1.8kg of fabric to lighter shades. Use multiple packs to dye larger quantities. It is recommended to use the whole pod in one go.
