Cromwell Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 Now that dylon have stopped making satin dye is there any other manufacturer that makes a similar product have looked high and low but cant fined anything. I know you can use lady esquire or tarrago but you lose the shine of the fabric. Any one know what the bridal shops use as they often offer a dying service for satin shoes but charge a fortune for it. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Simple, Use Dylon fabric dye. Use Dylon multipurpose, just mix the powder in a mug with hot water then brush it on. Satin is a fabric!!!!! Done many a pair with excellent results!! Huge range of colours too!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I've dyed hundreds of pairs of shoes with Dylon multipurpose, sadly this is no longer available. I now have to look for alternatives. Maybe the Dylon hand dye will do. If not I have found these http://www.satinshoedyes.com/ but they are only manufactured for mixing for white satin, which has a blueish tint to it so may need some tweaking for the off white satin that is most popular in makes like Rainbow, Meadows,Else,Katz etc. I would advise against using Tarrago or Esquire as this can stiffen the material.
