finding someone to tie dye a small piece of nylon speaker cloth


Name: Jeff
Message: Hello. I am trying to find someone that will be able to tie dye a small peice of nylon speaker cloth for me. I have absolutely no experience with any type of dying, but I am hoping that you will be able to direct me towards someone would do a good job. 

Please take a look at the 'Find a Custom Dyer' link on my web site, under the 'More' menu, or follow this direct link. There, a number of custom dyers have listed themselves and their websites. Anyone who dyes silk or wool should be able to dye untreated white 100% nylon fabric, using acid dyes, or you might choose to use some custom dyed wool fabric of an appropriate weave.

Don't ask them to dye a black or dark brown piece of nylon. Dye will show up only on light colors. The fabric must be washable and not treated with any water-resistant or stain-resistant finishes. Many dyers are willing to dye their own fabric to your specifications, but there is always a concern about risks, when dyeing a piece of fabric supplied by the customer, in case the fabric becomes damaged and not usable.


(Please help support this web site. Thank you.)
