The Dylon Fabric Dye Pod in Jeans Blue is an effortless, all-in-one solution for anyone looking to refresh faded clothes or completely transform the color of their natural fabrics. This innovative pod simplifies the dyeing process, allowing you to achieve permanent, vibrant results directly in your washing machine. While highly effective on cotton, linen, and viscose, it's important to note that pure synthetic fabrics will not dye, and fabric blends will only achieve lighter shades.
All-in-One Design: The dye comes in a convenient pod, eliminating the need for separate salt or measuring, making the process cleaner and simpler.
Machine Washable Application: Easily used directly in your washing machine, ensuring even color distribution and minimizing mess.
Permanent Color: Delivers lasting, fade-resistant color that withstands regular washing.
Suitable for Natural Fabrics: Specially formulated for cotton, linen, and viscose, providing full, rich color results.
Revives Faded Items: Ideal for breathing new life into worn-out jeans, towels, and other fabric items.
Effective at 40°C: Works efficiently at a standard wash temperature, integrating seamlessly into your laundry routine.
Variable Shade Results: One pod can dye up to 600g of fabric to its full shade, or up to 1.8kg for lighter, more subtle tones.
Extremely Easy to Use: Simple 'peel, place, and wash' method.
Mess-Free: All-in-one pod design reduces spills and direct handling of powder.
Permanent Results: Provides long-lasting, vibrant color.
Cost-Effective Refresh: An affordable way to update or revive existing garments and home textiles.
Versatile Application: Great for various natural fabric items like clothing, towels, and bedding.
Not for Pure Synthetics: Will not dye fabrics made purely from synthetic fibers.
Lighter Shades on Blends: Mixes with synthetic fabrics will only achieve a lighter shade of the intended color.
Fabric Weight Limitations: Achieving full shade requires specific fabric weight; overloading leads to lighter results.
Requires Two Wash Cycles: The process involves two consecutive wash cycles, consuming more water and energy.

The Dylon Fabric Dye Pod in Jeans Blue is engineered for straightforward and effective fabric transformation. When used correctly, it provides a consistent and deep blue hue, perfect for invigorating faded denim or adding a fresh look to cotton shirts, linen tablecloths, or viscose dresses.
For full, intense color, ensure your fabric load does not exceed 600g (approximately 1-2 pairs of jeans or a few t-shirts). If you're aiming for a lighter, more pastel shade, you can dye up to 1.8kg of fabric.
Examples of Use:
Reviving Faded Jeans: Transform those worn-out, light-blue jeans back to a rich, deep blue.
Coloring Towels: Give old, dull cotton towels a vibrant new life.
Updating Home Textiles: Change the look of cotton cushion covers, linen curtains, or bed sheets to match new decor themes.
Personalizing Garments: Infuse plain white or light-colored natural fiber clothing with a striking new color.
For optimal results, ensure the fabric is clean and damp before dyeing. The washing machine process ensures the dye penetrates evenly, reducing streaks or patches, assuming the machine is not overloaded.
Prepare Fabric: Ensure your fabric is clean and damp. Do not dry it after washing; place it directly into the washing machine drum.
Prepare Dye Pod: Remove the outer sleeve from the Dylon dye pod. Carefully peel off the lid completely.
Load Machine: Place the damp fabric into the washing machine drum. Then, place the open Dylon colour pod directly on top of the fabric inside the drum.
First Cycle: Run a full wash cycle (e.g., cotton or synthetics) at 30°C or 40°C with no detergent. Do not select pre-wash, economy, or half-load options.
Second Cycle: After the first cycle is complete, remove the empty dye pod. Run another full wash cycle at 30°C or 40°C, this time adding your regular laundry detergent.
Clean Machine: For best practice, run an empty wash cycle with detergent after dyeing to ensure no residual dye remains in the machine.
Suitable Fabrics: Ideal for cotton, linen, and viscose fabrics.
Blended Fabrics: Will dye mixes of natural and synthetic fabrics (e.g., cotton/polyester blends) but will result in lighter shades of the intended color.
Unsuitable Fabrics: Pure synthetic fabrics (e.g., 100% polyester, acrylic, nylon) will not dye. Materials like wool, silk, and specialized finishes (e.g., waterproof, dry clean only) are also generally not suitable.
Post-Dyeing Wash: Always perform the second wash cycle with detergent to set the dye and clean the fabric.
Initial Washes: For the first few washes after dyeing, consider washing the dyed items separately or with similar dark colors to prevent any minor color bleeding.
Normal Laundry Care: Once the dye is set, care for your dyed fabric according to its original care label instructions, though washing with similar colors is always recommended for dark or newly dyed items.
