Special Remarks
- This dyestuff dyes very extensively
- Anodised objects should be rinsed thoroughly before dyeing with distilled water.
- The best dye-bath stability is achieved by :
- cold dyeing (20 – 25 °C)
- a pH not below 5,5
- a high dye concentration (1 – 3 g/l)
- Water sealing lightens the dyeing and it becomes slightly yellowish.
