Jacquard Dye Additive Synthrapol - 8 oz Bottle

Synthrapol® is an industrial-strength, pH-neutral liquid detergent for dyed and painted fabrics. It can also be used as a wetting agent for fabric dyes and paints. The unique liquid detergent keeps loose dye pigment suspended during washing, preventing back staining and helping remove excess color.

Synthrapol® Liquid Detergent for Dyed and Painted Fabrics

• pH-neutral liquid detergent for dyed and painted fabrics
• Suspends loose dye in the wash to help prevent backstaining
• Helps remove excess dye for cleaner, brighter results
• Supports even dye results and helps reduce blotchy color
• Use as a wetting agent to improve the absorption of dyes and paints

Pre-wash: Synthrapol® is an effective pre-wash that can remove oil, wax, starch, and sizing from fabric. This step helps ensure an even dye job and reduces the risk of blotchy color. Add 3 tablespoons Synthrapol® to an 8-lb washing load. For cotton and other cellulose fibers, add two tablespoons of soda ash. Wash for at least 10 minutes using hot water, and then rinse thoroughly.

After wash: After dyeing or painting, rinse the fabric in cold water, then wash for at least 10 minutes using 3 tablespoons Synthrapol® per 8 lb wash load. Use hot water for cotton, cool to warm water for silk and wool, and then rinse thoroughly in cold water.

Wetting Agent: Adding Synthrapol® to a dye bath or to a fabric paint can increase color penetration. When dyeing wool and other hard-to-wet fibers, add 2 to 3 drops of Synthrapol® per 5 lb fabric. To increase fabric paint coverage on hard-to-wet textiles, add 1 to 2 drops Synthrapol® per 2 fl oz of fabric paint.
