SETTING INSTRUCTIONS:

  • UV and heat activated dye, so the more sun the brighter the colours
  • Lay flat in full direct sunlight un-opened
  • Turn over about every 15 mins to ensure both sides are exposed evenly
  • When you notice darker lines on the outside of the bundle in comparison to inside the pleats remove the elastics carefully and open
  • Continue to dry opened out and flat exposing both sides as above
    When dry tumble in hot dryer for a few mins or irion to soften fabric and boost colour brightness
  • Wait a few days before first wash, can be worn as soon as dry
    Wash as normal inside out guaranteed colours won't run in the wash
  • If no sun leave wrapped in plastic in the dark until there is.
    Also turn over every day left in the bag so the dye doesn't drop to one side of your project
