We will not ship this item between November and March, due to risk of freezing. Retayne is a color fixative for commercially dyed cotton fabrics or clothing to prevent color bleedi ng during washing. It "sets" the dye in the fabric. Soak fabrics in washing machine or basin in Retayne before washing them for the first time. Use 1 tsp. per yard of fabric in a HOT (at least 140 degrees F) soak for 20-30 minutes, with enough water to cover the fabric. Follow with a rinse. One treatment is usually sufficient to prevent further bleeding, but you can check rinse water for further dye release. This product should be used BEFORE cutting the fabric for your quilt or project - not afterwards. If you experience bleeding of your quilt or project after completion, you should use Synthrapol to remove excess dye molecules. Not recommended for energy efficient front loading or top loading machines. Show more
