You need to start with the major companies Ciba, Dystar, and Clariant with that wide a list. Organic Dyestuffs will have the dyes. There are no major suppliers in KY. If your friend is overseas, he is going to need to obtain these from there. US locations are just going to refer you to their offices off shore. If he wants cheap, he should be looking at Chinese and Indian suppliers. The above companies have a presence overseas also. For you to buy them and ship them would be very expensive to get all the required export and import licenses. The chemicals urea, soda ash, etc would need to be provided locally. You also don’t have salt on the list for reactive dyes.

The reference will also give you links to other potential sources.

i followed the instructions for procion mx dye use (color jet black). i did the tub dyeing for three garments. faded black skinny jeans, n two black tees. i didn’t have sodium carbonate so i got baking soda, boiled it (read boiling sodium bicarbonate makes it washing soda). i used salt (iodinized, i was making use of what i had. i mean ye some differences n not the exact thing..but the dye didnt even stick partially. my hands are like dirty looking/somewhat dark blue. im rly unhappy…
i filled my tub so it barely covers. added about 1/3 solo cup of salt. mixed. added 3+ spoons of jet black dye. mixed. added clothes (pre wet). soaked, stir a bit, flip, soak for 20 minutes. added the boiled baking soda after cooled down. mixed. soaked, stirred, flipx2 for 50 mins. did not stir occasionally..

You probably messed up in the ingrediants… when it calls for a certain thing, especially for dye, get the exact ingredient. Next time, get what it asks for. It will probably end up working out.

GARMENT DYEING SHIRTS HOW TO PREVENT BUTTON LOSS THEY ARE FALLING OFF!?

Question by Charles B: GARMENT DYEING SHIRTS HOW TO PREVENT BUTTON LOSS THEY ARE FALLING OFF!?
I am garment dyeing button down shirts and buttons keep falling off in the dye process. The thread is rock solid, the factory is certainly doing their job however I have to pay my warehouse to re-apply buttons to all the overdyed shirts.
Are there any solutions? Use different buttons?
hi pheobe- yes the threads are still on the buttons.
HOW CAN WE PREVENT!

Answer by pheebe
your answer is in your question. (re-apply buttons to all the OVERDYED shirts) change the dye concentration or processing time. Is the threads still on the buttons or on the shirt fabric when the buttons fall off? /////////// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////what about spraying some fabric glue to the back of the button threads or attach a small piece of fabric with glue to the back of the buttons

How do I protect clothing labels while dyeing a garment?

Question by randomleesi: How do I protect clothing labels while dyeing a garment?
I have some clothes I want to dye black but I don’t want to dye the label. For example I have a pair of pants that are faded but used to be black. There are tags around the pockets and more than one label on the inside. They are all red. How do I protect those while dyeing my pants black?

I’m using liquid black Rit dye on the clothes and I’m using the tub method. If you are familiar with dyeing on a regular basis, any tips would be appreciated.

Hi, I am not familiar with dye-ing at all, but I just thought that if you wrap the labels in sticky tape this would protect them, alternatively you could remove the label and replace it when your garment is dyed
