Tie-Dye Batik mit dem PATIN-A Tie-Dye-Kit

How does Tie Dye Batik work?

Please watch the Video or read carefully the detailed instructions in our blog.

Here is a short overview:
1. Lay the textiles for approx.10 to 20 minutes in a salt/reactive fixative bath and wring them out.
2. Tie up the wet textiles with string or turn them into spirals and fix them with rubber bands.
3. Fill content of the dye sachets into the squeeze bottles. Half fill the squeeze bottles with warm water, close the bottle and shake well until the dye has completely dissolved. Then fill the bottle up with water and cut the nozzle off.
4. Spray dye on parts of the tied up textile front and back.
5. Put textile in ziploc bag and close it. Leave the dyed textile for 24 - better 36 hours in the plastic bag.
6. The next day: remove ties or rubber bands and rinse textile under running water.
7. Wash with mild detergent or Prosapol and let dry.

What is the content of the kit?

• 4 sachets of DEKA aktuell Textile Dye: Lemon - Hibiscus - Azur - Black (yellow - red - blue - black)
• 100g of reactive agent 
• 4 x 500ml Tie Dye squeeze bottles
• approx. 50 rubber bands
• 500ml dye salt
• 15 Ziploc bags
• 4 pairs of latex gloves (Mix: S/M/L/XL)

With this kit you save about 20% compared to buying individual products.

What amounts can I dye?

It depends on the 'dyer'. The less you spill the more you can dye with the Tie Dye Batik Kit. The dyes are very effective and you only need very little for one T-shirt.
With this kit you can dye approx. 25 children or 15 adult T-shirts or a lot of scarves or bed linen.
If there is dye left, close the squeeze bottle and use it within a month.
You cannot keep the salt/fixative agent solution and should mix it again every time. 

More dyes & accessories:

If you want to dye with a larger group  or need more colour tones you can order more accessories: 

• DEKA aktuell Textile Dye
Fixative agent
Dye salt
Squeeze bottles
Rubber bands 
Gloves mix for children and adults (XS to XL)

Recommendation:

We recommend Synthrapol by Jacquard before, during and after dyeing:
• Pre-wash to remove impregnations or finishes.
• During dyeing, a drop of Synthrapol in the dye liquor takes away the surface tension and allows the dyes to penetrate better.
• After dyeing, Synthrapol removes all free pigments and prevents subsequent discolourations.

Have fun dyeing!

Tie Dye Instructions:

Included in the kit:

• 4 sachets of DEKA aktuell Textile Dye: Lemon - Hibiscus - Azur - Black (yellow - red - blue - black)
• 100g of reactive agent
• 4 x 500ml Tie Dye Squeeze Bottles
• approx 50 rubber bands
• 500ml of dye salt
• 15 ziploc bags
• 4 pairs of latex gloves (S/M/L/XL)

In addition you need:

• white or light coloured textiles (t-shirts, scarves, bed linen, pillow cases...)
• warm water
• 1 large bowl
• 1 wire grid (e.g. cake cooling grid)
• 1 funnel
• string or rubber bands in different sizes

How to tie dye

1. Dissolve the reactive agent and the salt at the same time in a bowl or bucket in approx. 5 liters of warm water.
Lay the textiles for 10 to 20 minutes in this salt/reactive agent bath and then wring them out.

2. While the textiles soak in the reactive agent bath you can fill the content of the dye sachets in the squeeze bottles.
For that purpose, take a dry plastic funnel or make a funnel (for each bottle) from a sheet of paper which you form into a spout and cut off at the tip.
Half fill the squeeze bottles with warm water, close them with the red nozzle and shake well until the dye has completely dissolved. Then fill the bottle with warm water up to the thread, shake again and cut tip of the nozzle off.

3. Either tie up the wet (and wrung out) textiles with string or turn them to spirals and fix them with the rubber bands.

4. Spray die on parts of the tied up textiles front and back.

5. Put every dyed textile in a zip lock bag and close the zipper. Leave for 24 - or better 36 hours in the plastic bag.

6. The next day: rinse the textile out under running water and remove the ties or rubber bands.

7. Wash with mild detergent and let dry.

Wishing you much success with tie dye batik

Alles Top

Ich habe schon mehrmals Sachen bestellt für unsere Batikfärbe-Kindergeburtstage und war jedes Mal sehr zufrieden sowohl mit dem Service (bei Problemen), als auch mit Verpackung und Lieferung. Ich habe nichts zu bemängeln.

Sehr zufrieden!

Habe mir ein Batik-Set bestellt.
Ist sehr schnell bei mir angekommen und war super sicher, effizient und sparsam verpackt! Ich konnte die Farben noch nicht ausprobieren - sie machen aber einen sehr qualitativen Eindruck.
Habe schon öfter Batik-Farben gekauft und diese hier schauen auf jeden Fall am hochwertigsten aus.
Auch die mitgelieferte Anleitung ist sehr einfach und verständlich. Gerne wieder!

Extremely cool colours

I bought this as a fun project to do with my younger sisters. We dyed some T-shirts that they then wore to their friends' birthday parties and got so many compliments on how funky they looked. It was a really fun afternoon - thanks Patin-A! Will definitely be trying another set.

So ein Spaß

Dieses Set gefällt mir sehr gut. Alles drin was man braucht und das ganze auch einfach zu machen. Meine Kinder und auch mein Mann hatten erst großen Spaß und jetzt jede Menge bunter Shirts für den Sommer.

Superklasse!

Meine ersten Versuche zu Tie-Dye'n sind dank dieses supertollen Sets perfekt gelungen.
Da ist einfach alles dabei und von allem wirklich genug.
Wir haben 15 T-Shirts gefärbt und es ist noch fast die Hälfte an Farbe übrig.
Bei meiner nächsten Bestellung werde ich kleinere Handschuhe mitbestellen, da die großen Handschuhe Kindern nicht passen.
