salt effects when using acid dyes

[teal3b]

Hello,

I just bought some jacquard acid dyes. I want to use them for silk paiinting. Do salt effects work when using acid dyes for silk painting?

Hi,
Yes you can do the salt effect with Acid Dyes (http://www.jacquardproducts.com/products/dyes/aciddye/). You need to apply the salt (http://www.jacquardproducts.com/products/chemicals/silksalt.php) to the fabric when the color is damp or wet to get an effect.
