Message: Do you know where I can send a couch slipcover to be dyed?

Yes, I know of four redyers, three in the US and one in Canada. Use email or the telephone to agree on terms and prices, then mail your slipcover to the company. They will dye it and mail it back. Look on my page, "Where can I find someone to dye my clothing for me?", in the top section, labeled "Garment Redyers: changing the color of clothing you already have". Contact information is included there. You will need to tell the company you chose what the exact fiber content of your slip cover is, because it makes a hugh difference in how easily it may be dyed.

If your slipcover is made of a natural fiber, such as cotton or silk, it can most likely be redyed. If it is made of a polyester, however, only one of the companies listed will be willing to dye it. Most dyers are not interested in dyeing polyester. However, both nylon and rayon are both easily dyed.

There are some cases in which a slipcover cannot be dyed. If your slipcover has been treated with Scotchgard™ or other stain repellent, you will not be able to get it dyed, because stain repellent finishes repel both water and dye. If your slip cover is made from Olefin (also known as polypropylene or Herculon), it cannot be dyed, because polypropylene must be dyed while it is still in liquid form, before it is transformed into a fiber.
