Separate your laundry: Keep your whites and colors separate to prevent bleach from accidentally splashing onto your colored clothing. Once the dye has set, you can wash the fabric in cold water to remove any excess dye. Be sure to use a mild detergent and avoid using bleach or fabric softener, as these can damage the color and texture of the fabric. After this has dissolved, add the cup of pre-mixed dye in the same way – pushing the fabric to the side to avoid pouring it directly. This helps to avoid dark splotches. Mix thoroughly. You can swish a bit of extra hot water in your dye cup and add it to your dye bath to make sure you get it all. Step 7: Stir frequently until the dye is absorbed. Turn off the heat. Use alternative cleaning agents: Bleach isn’t the only cleaning agent out there. Consider using alternatives such as hydrogen peroxide or vinegar, which are less likely to cause bleach stains.

First and foremost, it is essential to choose fabric markers that are specifically formulated for use on fabric. These markers are designed to adhere to fabric fibers, ensuring long-lasting color and preventing the ink from bleeding or fading over time. The heat helps the ink penetrate the fabric fibers, making it more resistant to fading or washing off. Consider using a fabric sealant spray

Since you’re only using these for salt or vinegar, you don’t need a special “dye only” set, your regular kitchen ones are fine. Protect your work area by covering it with plastic or old newspaper. This will prevent any accidental spills and make clean up easier. If the bleach stain is particularly stubborn and the color doesn’t fully cover it with one coat, don’t worry. Simply apply a second coat after allowing the first coat to dry completely. This will help intensify the color and ensure better coverage. Touch up periodically as needed Once you have finished applying the dye, inspect the stained area to see if it has been fully covered. If not, you may need to repeat the dyeing process or apply the dye directly to the stained area with a brush. With a little patience and effort, your garment will look as good as new! Let the Dye Set
