Procion MX dyes are "cold water dyes" that do not require heat. This unique property sets the Procion MX apart from all other dyes and establishes them as the preferred choice for dyeing, batik and tie dye. As Procion dyes can be used away from the stovetop, they are also perfect for shibori, ice dyeing, tub and low water immersion dyeing, printing, direct painting and other alternative dye applications. As a fibre reactive dye, Procion MX forms a strong covalent bond with cellulose fibres making it the most permanent and washfast dyestuffs. Mix the concentrated dye powder with warm tap water to create the most vibrant of all colours for cotton, linen and other plant based fabrics. Procion MX dyes are typically used with soda ash fixative which can be added directly to the dye bath or used to pre treat the fabric. Typically one 2/3 oz bottle will dye around 500g of dry fabric. Note that very bright coloured fabrics will require more dye and pastel light colours will require less. it is reccommended to do a test swatch to ensure the desired effect is achieved.
