Is there a good replacement for Createx Liquid Dyes?



Name: Wen
Message: I do low immersion dying and like the ease of the Createx dyes as they require no heat setting, no nasty powders to breathe, and little messing with chemicals. As you probably know, they have stopped making them THUS my question- Do you know of any other dyes out there like them?? Thanks for your time!

Createx® Liquid Fiber Reactive Dyes were Vinyl Sulfone dyes, also known as Remazol® dyes. These can be used with only slightly more effort at fixing the dyes than that required for Procion MX dyes, and the fact that you can buy them in liquid form is a great convenience, since it is hazardous to breathe dye powder. Although the color range will be slightly different from each vendor, you can still buy this exact same type of dye as Jacquard Red Label Fiber Reactive Dye (not the same as the green label Jacquard silk dyes!) and as PRO Chemical & Dye's Liquid Reactive Dyes.

For more information on this class of dye, see About Vinyl Sulfone Fiber Reactive Dyes. A copy of the old Createx Colors instructions is also available.
