Dyeing clothes black?

Zaphod B · 2004-08-18 18:20:23

Hi, I'm looking to dye a pair of jeans and a denim jacket black. I know it can be done with some materials, as I've seen it done with army parka jackets with pretty good results, but I'm not sure about denim. Does anyone have any experience of doing this, or know the best products to use? Any advice would be much…

Used standard black clothes dye before on denim. Worked fine Fades after a while, but can be just put thru the wash with a fresh pack of dye

the ones you put in the washing machine are really good - if you're in dublin they sell them downstairs in Hickeys in Henry Street just beside Arnotts...
