Green Label Silk Colors – Liquid dyes for silk and wool. Needs steam-setting for long-lasting colors. 2. Red Label Silk Colors – Stronger and more vibrant than Green Label. Also needs steam-setting. 3. Dye-Na-Flow – A thin, free-flowing fabric paint that works like dye. Heat-set with an iron

Jacquard founder Michael Katz takes us inside his dye studio (i.e., his green house) to demonstrate vat dyeing with SolarFast dyes. The challenge is to dye two large pieces of blended silk/rayon velvet to an intense, even color. SolarFast dyes are generally used for sun-printing as they are light-activated, but they are formulated from vat dyes, which can also be activated chemically, without sunlight. Vat dyes have one very unique property: they are colorless in the dye bath! Fabric is saturate
