Acid Dyeing Nylon And Lycra

Hi ~ I saw your website and thought you would be the best perfect to ask this question to…What would you use to dye M. Stevens’ Milliskin Unitards? They are a blend of 77% nylon and 23% lycra. Would Rit dye work on this product? Thanks for your help! Kristina

Kristina,
Rit may work, but it will not be very dark or saturated. I have good luck dyeing nylon with the acid dyes and HOT water in the washing machine. These are available at www.dharmatrading.com.
best,
Jennifer
