trying to salvage a nylon shirt ruined by superglueName: Kelly
Message: Hi, i was wondering how to dye black nylon. i have a shirt of my boyfriends and am trying to fix it because it got super glue all over the back and will not come out so i was just going to fix the color. if you could tell me how to dye a nylon shirt that would be very helpful. Thank you Dyeing a nylon shirt that has been damaged by superglue is probably considerably more difficult than simply dyeing a black nylon shirt. Whatever the superglue did to the nylon, it will probably prevent dye from reaching the nylon fiber, wherever it contacted the shirt. The areas touched by superglue may be protected from the dye, just like the waxed regions when dyeing a batik. Nylon can be dyed by simmering it with acid dyes or Lanaset dyes - e.g., see ProChem's instructions for Lanaset dye - but I have no confidence that this could fix your boyfriend's shirt.
