8 Fl. Oz. Liquid Black Paint

I bought this product to dye Raffia grass for staining it to add to camouflage for my Airsoft equipment. The colour hasn’t faded at all and so far lasts ages. You have to wear gloves otherwise, you will stain your hands! :) The amount of dye was plenty for the project I was undertaking and I was able to use it for multiply dunks of the raffia grass. I combined this dye with the yellow one which I used first. Excellent value for money. It was easy to use and the instruction were simple to follow.

Looks great, good quality dye, worked as it should and it is value for money.

This product is very effective and covered a good area. The colour was a bit darker than I would have liked, but I just watered it down. Good quality product. Can irritate the skin so I wore gloves. Covered up the area required for. Will recommend.

I purchased this to put the colour back into one in my daughter’s green hoodies from TopShop. It didn’t work. The instructions for the dye are indecipherable and seem to be made for US washing machines. I found a YouTube video that RIT had sponsored which was also fairly useless and just skipped key steps. If you have a stand-alone machine you may achieve better results. However, having a built-under washing machine makes it virtually impossible to pour in almost two litres of boiling water (4 cups water and salt/ four cups of water and dye) without scalding yourself or covering your cupboard doors/ worktop/ washing machine/ floor with dye (in my case fluorescent green). You need to get this water into the top feed tray before the washing machine finishes the flushing of the powder/ liquid. Also once you’re past 40 years old there’s no chance of you reading the instructions on the bottle which may as well have been printed on microfiche. Basically it has ruined my daughter’s hoodie top (which was a faded lime green to start with). The dye is patchy with dark green areas - a total mess and I subsequently had to purchase a new jogging top to replace it. However, please also note that RIT would like you to purchase a dye fixer (another £10). That’s £20 in total, making it fairly uneconomical considering a replacement hoodie is £35 delivered. And wait for it, some garments may need more than one bottle of dye... bargain! My advice would be to save your money and either tie dye when it’s at the end of its life or just buy new.

I used this to dye two items, a light grey vest and a light grey cashmere cardigan that had a couple of light stains on it. The vest came out purple and the cashmere cardigan came out brown which is not a colour I’m in love with. It did dye well and covered the stains but I wanted grey and there’s no way I can get this cardigan grey now, I’ll have to dye it black if I can’t live with the brown colour. I also think it’s expensive and as the items were already grey it didn’t seem unreasonable to expect them to turn out the correct colour.

I tried another famous brand first that me being British knew well, sadly it didn’t work my white curtains came out white not the smoke grey they were meant to be. I love the curtains they are voile with a cotton backing, but couldn’t get them in grey. I decided to try Rit, and I couldn’t be happier the color was charcoal grey and I’m extremely pleased with the result it said put salt or white vinegar depending on the material . (I did google and watch a video) . I thought in for a penny, so I put both in, and I did them in the washing machine I did use 4 bottles, but I’m pleased so I don’t care lol. Absolutely brilliant stuff I wouldn’t use any other make again except Rit.

Good

My Granddaughter bought a white dress for a 'hen-do' as she couldn't find a pink one she liked. We used the whole bottle of dye in a jam pan with 12 pints of water, some salt and vinegar. It was polyester so we were unsure if it would work. However, it turned out brilliantly to a perfect pastel shade. We washed it in the washing machine and it stayed pink. Would recommend the product. Great job!
