I have light baby blue jeggings I want to turn them WHITE! Would this do the trick? (77% Cotton / 21% Polyester / 2% Spandex)

I would say this is probably risky. I would be wary of the 23% synthetic fiber content. I had 100% cotton that I was working with when I used it, and as you can see above, it had very variable results. The answer would lie in how much you like your jeggings, I guess.

It's a good idea to rebleach to white if possible to get the full vibrancy of color. Remember to condition!

Dear Pauline,I would direct you to a lady from Washington state named"BaysideBarb",who handmakes the most wonderful array of bibs,that are reversible. Otherwise,you will get a limited selection of plaids,none of wich are predominately blue. The flannel adult bibs are nice,but a little less than cheery. Bayside barb is on amazon at a site called "ETSY"..YOU SHOULD CHECK HER OUT. She is also a very nice lady to deal with,and if you explain to her what you need,she does it! Good luck...mark

I washed it at home. Big mistake. First wash too. It was really too big for the washer and it may have worked if only I had used the gentle cycle. Ripped it up. Had to throw it away. Bummer, because I actually loved the light weight of the polyester. Take it to a laundry mat with large washers and use the delicate cycle or take to the cleaners.

Yes. We tye dyed them earlier in the summer and they still look good after many washings. They may look a little more faded than a 100% cotton t-shirt would, but as long as you really soak them with the dye and follow washing instructions, they should turn out fine.

I would think it would; especially if the piece is cotton. It might lighten colors though. I would recommend pouring lemon/vinegar/water (equal parts) solution through the piece. Someone needs to hold it for you so you can pour and it will run through.

Depends on the fabric. There are infinate surface finishes. Cheap enough try

They will "work" on dark fabrics, but you may not be able to see the blue marker on the red shirt, etc. Just like if you painted a dark color on another dark color. It does not act like a lightener and they are not opaque. Meaning that the yellow will not appear yellow on a dark colored cloth, but would be just a faint mark on it instead.

Yes. A simple solution would be to get a downy ball and use it like you were using fabric softener.

I have noticed my whites are brighter, colors keep there color longer. Only if you let it dissolve first before putting clothes in top-washer as I had new wash clothes and one of my blue wash cloth has white spots. Hope this helps.

You can mix it with their Crystal clear and it will get it to be lighter. If you visit their web site they have mixes you can do to get certain colors.

Yes. You need to use 100% cotton or other natural fabric for best results. If you want to dye poly, it takes a special product for synthetics. If you dye with blends, the poly part will not dye. The cotton part will. It might be an interesting effect. Try a small piece and see what you get. Plus, things loose a lot of brightness as the colors set and dry. And you may lose more color when you first wash the garment. And that kit will not dye 15 shirts. More like 5.

It only affects dyed colors so the white should be unaffected. Keep in mind it's meant for dyed fabrics so if the colors are screen printed etc on a white background it won't affect the color

Definitely not the same. These are special for fabric but they don't work well on dark colors.

in my opinion, no! i used it on a pair of lightweight dress pants and 1x in the wash, they came completely apart!! i know i did it right. i have used hem tape many times before. do yourself a favor. opt for the heavy duty stuff. this is a joke.

Absolutely, but for both. It depends on your other attire. Will you be wearing a light, or even white shirt? Better get a white one for that. If wearing something dark, of course, the black is it. Only problem I'm running into with the white ones is how they get dingier after every wash. I will try to soak them in a bleach solution for about 20 to 30 minutes, then run them through the wash again, to see if it brightens them up. I have 5 white ones, one black. I try to budget a new purchase each month. The black is great, no turning grey like the white, but black is easily discolored by any bleach. I think that's it. You are welcome to inquire further.
