Family-owned and operated, we have proudly led the way in artist materials for fabric, delivering top-quality products for everyone, from professional artists to hobbyists and students. Jacquard’s Soda Ash Powder is an essential tool for fabric dyeing, perfect for achieving vibrant, long-lasting colors in tie dye, batik, and immersion dyeing projects. When preparing fabric for tie dye, simply mix one cup of soda ash powder per gallon of warm water. Allow the fabric to soak for about 20 minutes, then gently wring out any excess solution—no rinsing required, so you’re ready to jump into dyeing right away! For immersion dyeing cellulose fibers, such as cotton or linen, Jacquard Soda Ash Powder can be added to the dye bath with ease. Just add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of soda ash powder per three gallons of water, then add to your dye bath per instructions for best results. Even laundry dyeing becomes a breeze with Jacquard’s Soda Ash. For dyeing in a washing machine, dissolve 2-3 cups of soda ash powder in one quart of hot water, then gradually add it to the dye bath in the machine. This method ensures an even, professional-quality finish on fabrics. Jacquard Soda Ash Powder is a versatile, easy-to-use dye activator that works beautifully with natural fibers like cotton, linen, and rayon. Available in both 1 lb and 5 lb sizes, it's perfect for projects of any scale, whether you're just starting out or planning a major dyeing session. With Jacquard, expect nothing less than brilliance and durability in every dye job.

Just learning how to different tie dyes when I accidentally bought this thinking I needed it (when I didn’t) but then as I tried other dyes, it turned out I did need it.I will be buying more soon. Turns out about a cup makes a gallon of or pre soak so depending on how much you do, this will be more than enough or you may need lots more.I keep mixed portion in a five gallon bucket with lid to save so I can come back to it. You can apparently sprinkle on at end of process to but still just working on one process at a time.

- Soda Ash, Washing Soda, Sodium Carbonate, or Na2CO3 - several names for a multi-use substance. Just don't confuse it with sodium BIcarbonate, which is baking soda, and much milder than this soda ash.- Jacquard sells this as a fixative for its like of Procion/Fiber-Reactive dyes. What it does is "tie" the molecules of the dye to the cellulose of plant-based fibers, i.e., cotton, flax, and naturally-sourced rayons, which - if I recall correctly! - are basically re-polymerized cellulose that itself is obtained from various plants, especially bamboo, beech trees, and hemp. Beyond being a dye fixative, it has various cleaning applications. Note, though, that this isn't the same as the washing soda sold in the laundry aisle of the grocery; this is a "dense" form which is not hydrates, whereas the laundry form has several water molecules attached to each molecule of sodium carbonate. The end effect is that this dense form is stronger, therefore more basic/more caustic. So one does need to take precautions when using this dense form of sodium carbonate, since it *can* cause a chemical burn. At the same tome, though, the format of this sodium carbonate by Jacquard is about the safest possible, because the granules, while small enough to dissolve well, also are just heavy enough so that they won't be easily blown or lifted into the air, as a powder would. So it's harder to breathe-in any of the granules. But do wear good chemical-resistant gloves and eye-protection, and become acquainted with safety precautions. Jacquard's Soda Ash can be *very* useful, but it's important to be safe!

This product was suggested with a natural fibres dye I purchased. I have never used a fixer before. But have died fabric black many times. I have seen WAY less fading than usual. In fact some things after seven or more loads washing. Have shown no signs of fading! Would recommend to all who use die for natural fibres!!!

Is essential for tie-dye, depending on your type of dye. and it’s not a bad price.
