FAQs
Can I use this on polyester blends?
Dylon Dye Pods are designed for natural fabrics. Synthetic blends like polyester will result in very light or patchy colors.
Will this ruin my washing machine?
No, if used correctly, the dye is contained. Running a quick wash cycle with detergent after dyeing will remove any residual pigment.
What temperature should I use?
The dye is formulated to activate specifically at 40°C for the best permanent results.
Can I achieve a pastel shade?
Yes, by increasing the amount of fabric (up to 1.8kg) instead of a single 600g item, the dye concentration will be thinner, producing a lighter pastel effect.
Do I need to add salt?
No, the Dylon Dye Pod is an all-in-one solution and already contains the necessary components for the dyeing process.
Can I dye items that aren't white?
Yes, but remember that the final color is a mix of the original fabric color and the Peony Pink dye. Dyeing over a dark color will produce a muted, darker shade.
Troubleshooting
Color is lighter than expected
Check if your fabric contains synthetic fibers, which do not accept dye well, or if you overloaded the machine with more than 1.8kg of fabric.
Uneven dyeing results
Ensure the fabric is fully unfolded and damp before placing it in the drum to allow for even water circulation during the cycle.
Dye residue in the machine
Run a standard cycle with detergent and an old towel immediately after dyeing to clear the drum and seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before you begin, verify that your fabric is composed of natural fibers such as cotton, linen, or viscose. Synthetic blends containing polyester, nylon, or elastane will not absorb the dye effectively and will result in significantly lighter or uneven colors. After the dyeing cycle is complete, run an additional empty wash cycle with detergent to ensure the machine is cleaned of any residual dye. Always dry dyed garments away from direct heat or intense sunlight to help preserve the new color.
