Message: I am looking at starting a business, re dyeing of ready made clothing. I don't know much about dyeing "professionally" so I need to take a course. I am supposed to start a management course in January where I have to write the business plan and would want to do the dyeing course before.

I was about to shut down my PC when I came across your website, have been searching online trying to find a course available. Not sure if you do courses but would love your advice. What machines I should use etc, or maybe we could do an online course. I don't know I'm just asking cause I really need to get this done.Thank you, hoping to get a reply.

I'm afraid I have nothing to offer. My web site is all about hand dyeing, not professional dyeing.

I don't know anything about how to operate a professional dyeing shop. There seem to be very few to be found anywhere; the few I have found are listed on my page, "Where to Find a Custom Dyer". Be sure to study the contracts they have customers fill out before dyeing. Keep in mind that dye type and technique must be matched to the fiber content, and not all garments will survive dyeing.

The only machine I've ever used for dyeing is a top-loading washing machine. There are similar, larger-capacity machines that allow the use of water of any temperature, but I don't have any information about them.

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