So sorry for the late response. Yes the sell the candle wax. Can you explain what you mean by "this application". If you mean the dye, yes they sell it.
If your fabric looks faded after dyeing it is either because the fabric is not 100% Cotton or you are not using enough dye or hydrosulphite. To make your fabric shine, rub it with candle wax when ironing or give it to fabric beaters to beat the fabric for you; that makes the fabric to shine. But, bear in mind that after you wash the fabric, the shine goes off. Except offcourse you choose to wax the cloth everytime you iron it.
Hello, you boil only the water used in mixing the dye. Hot water is needed, but you allow the mixed dye to cool before applying to the material so that the hot water does not melt the wax.
Good afternoon ma'am. 😂....our Online training will be available from the 15th of January ma'am and you are right it's not for free😂. Cost is N50,000 ma'am.
Hello Just wanted to ask someone who is well versed in adire. I am a Nigerian. I love blue/ indigo adire and have a collection of custom made adire clothing. There were three instances ( i bought from someone i found on etsy and afrikrea who are based in nigeria)when this happened where I noticed the adire had brown/ yellow marks or stains showing through the blue dye. Is this due to the dyeing process or the drying process when they are left on the ground. Would love your opinion.
It could be as a result of the dyeing process ma'am. Such can be avoided though via simply mixing the dye concentrates correctly and dyeing the fabrics correctly.
Hello Happy New Year Thank you for the response. I really appreciate it. It must be the dyeing process, because I noticed it from 2 different people I bought adire from. So I was wondering if it was a common appearance in adire.Could it also be the wax staining the fabric. Many thanks.
You can use it on another project but, it has to be used within 24hrs. Or, you bottle the left over and store, then on ur next project you can add a little more dye and the sulphite chemical to reactivate it.
@@myerlynpajibo4321 here in Nigeria, the sellers of dye chemicals also sell the wax. You can place a request with the shop you get your supplies from and, they can inform you when they stock up on it.
À ce que j'ai appris, on ne met JAMAIS l'acide caustique avant l'eau. Risque d'explosion. Voici les étapes que j'ai appris : 1) eau 2) teinture 3) acide caustique 4) hydro
Yes I did. If you are making tie and dye, the water can be warm. But, if its wax batik, you have to wait for the water to be lukewarm or of room temperature before putting your waxed fabric into the dye solution.
