Worked great
Worked great. Used it on some polo shirts and a faded black baseball hat. Had to rinse and rewash per instructions. They came out great.

Not worth it
Attempted to dye a white 100% cotton jacket. I followed the directions for the bucket method and washing afterwards, it pulled all the color out, leaving a dark purple/grey with splotches of white. Tried to re-dye it again and did not wash it afterwards. It isn’t a true black. I would not recommend the product.

Not true black
My white clothes came out more of a dark charcoal with some lavender undertones. I was hoping for a true black but that was with the hot water and plastic bucket method. I believe you may get better results on a stove top.

Like brand new
I have to wear all black to work. When my fav items start to fade I put 1-3 bottles of this in the washing machine with my work clothes to freshen them up. Works great and they come right back to life. The dye will stain your washer so I always run a bleach load right after. Also they dye will bleed out and stain its neighbors for many washes afterward so I always sort the black/dyed items from anything I don’t want stained. Been doing this for decades with no plans in stopping.

Waste of money for us
This did not work for me. I was trying to dye my sons blue jeans to black. They never reached a black state and after a few washes they are back to the original color.

Turned out purple
Looked good before washing (black) & even used the second Rit product to help with color retention. Did 60 minutes in the dye with the stove top method. Still came out purple. Dyed my white doc a tot because toddler took black dry erase marker to it & couldn’t get it out. Stained area that was cleaned with alcohol & wood cleaner took black the best 🤦♀️

Really temperamental and tricky dye to work with!
I'm guessing that success depends on the color you pick and the fabric you are using. I used the Black dye on 2 sets of 100% cotton sheets and pillowcases that had gotten a bit dingy, and one set turned out kind of purpleish, and the other turned out a bit greenish. Why? Who knows... I used the right amount of dye, and near boiling water, stirring well, and leaving the items in the dye bath fo a very long time, so who knows why the two sets of sheets are now different colors. However, it is still better than "dngy." Just an FYI, you should buy more bottles than you think you need. in order to get decent color saturation.

Doesnt work with certain materials
I would have to buy a couple of these to want a true black. One isn’t enough or it just doesn’t work.
