I finally got round to dyeing my Soldier 95 combat jacket and i am mightily unimpressed. I used Dylon hand dye in black and it has come out really badly. The DPM still shows through, which i can live with as it is very muted compared to before and has got rid of most of the Rambo effect, but the thicker threads in the rip-stop show through and it looks like pin-stripe. So now its like a sort of survivalist meets futures trader, not really good at all. I can only assume that the thicker threads have more polyester in them and so take up the dye less well. Is there anything available that will dye polyester properly?
Thanks in advance.
