About this product

Product Information

Get the most vivid color possible on your hard-to-dye fabrics with the Jacquard Acid Dye Powder in Cherry Red. The acid in the vinegar that you add helps to gently penetrate fabrics. A half-ounce of this powder will provide a uniform red color for up to 2 pounds of fabric or yarn in water, depending on the intensity of the shade you want. This dye can also be used to paint or print on fabric and accessories, and it produces a brilliant, colorfast, lightfast, and washfast color. Jacquard Acid Dye is designed for use on natural fibers. Jacquard Dyes come in a concentrated powder that is mixed with water and an acetic acid like white vinegar. The dyes work best on protein fabrics like silk, wool, and nylon. Other good selections include Lycra, feathers, alpaca, human hair, chiffon, and wool roving for spinning. The dye is very easy to use and requires few supplies. All that is needed is the concentrated powdered color, the citric acid or white vinegar, and water. The dye can be used in the washing machine or on the stovetop. Some professional dyers who use Procion and acid dye use Synthrapol first, which is a prewash used to remove dirt, grease, and sizing from the fiber, and sometimes afterward as well to remove any excess dye. If dying the item on the stovetop, supplies needed are a large metal or enamel stockpot. If you can find a white enamel pot, it will be easier to check the color. Acid dyes must be placed in very hot water, around 205 degrees. Some fabrics will take the acid dye quicker than others, and the intensity of the desired color will depend on how long you leave it in the dye to soak. Silks generally dye very quickly, but coarser fabrics such as wool and roving generally take a little longer. The dyes are highly concentrated, so you should start with a small amount and work up to the correct shade for the fiber. Care must be taken with wool fibers and silk because too much heat can destroy the fabric. Dyeing fabrics in an immersion bath results in bright, vibrant colors that are colorfast. The Jacquard Acid Dyes can also be used like paint when mixed with a little hot water. The dyes can be used on card stock to make gift cards, on paper to make custom prints, and on ready-made desk accessories for cute gifts. Scarves can be dyed in mason jars with the Jacquard Acid Dye and water, and they make a great gift. Some dyers like to pre-dye their silk scarves with gray or ecru acid dye first to darken the fabric if the dye colors seem too light. Another use for the Jacquard Acid Dyes is dyeing feathers for fly tying. Many anglers swear that the bright, vivid colors on the feathers attract big fish. This Jacquard Acid Dye Powder in Cherry Red will make your clothing and accessories pop. Jacquard Dyes come in a variety of shades, store well, and produce a beautiful product.
