Soda Ash Dye Fixer
Soda Ash, also known as sodium carbonate, washing
soda, or sal soda is a mild alkali that promotes the chemical
reaction between Procion MX fiber reactive dye and cellulose
fiber. Soda Ash is necessary to activate and "set"
Procion dye. |

Synthrapol
A mild soap specifically made for removing
excess dye so that dried articles may be washed with other
laundry. When dyeing, not all of the dye will react
with the fiber being dyed. Excess dye, therefore,
must be removed to prevent backstaining. Rinse the
fiber as thoroughly as possible with a small amount of Synthrapol,
then launder with one tablespoon per load. Synthrapol
suspends and carries the excess dye from the fiber. |

Urea
Urea is a humectant. A humectant attracts
moisture from the air, keeping the fiber damp longer, allowing
a greater reaction time for the dye. Urea is used
with sodium alginate thickener when printing, painting or
directly applying Procion dye to fiber, or is added to Procion
dye for super intense color. |

Sodium Alginate SH
Used primarily for cotton and other cellulose
fibers. May be used for silk when fine line definition
is not required. Sodium Alginate is derived from seaweed
and is the most desirable thickener for Procion MX dye.
Used to thicken dye for screen printing, painting, or to
control spreading. |

Batik Wax
Batik wax is a 50/50 mix of paraffin and
microcrystalline waxes. It melts at 150º, the optimum
temperature for batik and resist techniques. This
batik wax produces a distinctive "crackle" effect
for batik. |

Batik
Cups
Batik cups are made from brass with wooden
handles. They have tapered spouts for easy movement, and
are cup-shaped so the wax stays fluid for a longer period
of time. |

Chem-Water Base Print Mix
The Print Base Kit is handy, pre-measured
amounts of the necessary chemicals one would use for silk
screening or hand painting with Procion MX Fiber Reactive
dyes. |

Reactive Dye Scour
This is used in the initial wash after
dyeing with reactives to prevent back staining.
It may be used with any reactive dye, and is particularly
helpful in situations where excess dye may have been applied
to the fabric when fixation was compromised, or when a
particular color is bleeding. |
