Safety Considerations

  • We do not reccomend spraying with Liquid Procion H Dyes. Mist may produce allergic reaction by inhalation, ingestion or skin contact. Eye contact may cause permanent eye damage.
  • Wear thin latex rubber gloves throughout preparation and painting procedures for safety and cleanliness.
  • Store all dyes and chemcials in clearly marked and dated containers out of reach of children and pets in a cool dry place.
  • Use all dye containers or utensils only for dyeing, never for food preparation.

Usage

  • Deep Black 40% is best used to achieve a true deep black - diluted 2:1
  • When painting wool, omit baking soda.
  • Silk painting: if layering colors in a watercolor style, decrease baking soda to 1/2 tsp. (2.5 grams) per 125 ml chemical water.
  • If you are using Presist as a resist, use unprinted newsprint paper when steaming. If the paper sticks to the softened Presist, it will easily wash out during the rinsing process.
  • Oversteaming will not make colors brighter or more permanent. It may increase the chance of bleeding, backstaining or water spots.
