Question 1

This listing is very misleading. The title says that the dye is for Polyester but the description plainly says "For use on 100% natural fabrics."???

Accepted Answer

The confusion is because Amazon's editors are either too moronic or lazy to read carefully. if you look on the bottom left of the box (put your cursor over it to enlarge), you'd see that it actually says, "For use with 100% natural fabrics...use iDye for natural fabrics." Amazon left out the second half of that sentence because it was on a separate line. But it's clearly part of the same sentence. So yes, iDye Poly is made for 100% polyester )and synthetics. If your fabric is a natural-poly blend, you need to add in some normal iDye (see second photo).

Question 2

Yes, but what are you ordring if you choose this???

Question 3

The listing says this is for use in washing machines, why does that oacket say you have to use boiling water on the stove?! not happy

Accepted Answer

Very sorry.  The listing is not correct.  We have 2 types of iDye natural and poly.  The poly has to be boiled

Question 4

Will this dye thread?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It’s meant to dye polyester and most thread is also made of polyester. It would also dye cotton thread (but most likely your clothes don’t have cotton thread). But it may dye the thread a slightly different color than the fabric.

I used it to dye a bathing suit and I was amazed that the dye got a very dee color on the material, living, thread, and even in the plastic clip closure. It worked really well!!!  Has stayed even through years swimming and washing - but I had to buy a big pot and boil the suit in there to dye properly. I would not use a washing machine to dye!!!
