I need to dye some fabric that is 100% polyester for my daughter's halloween costume. Someone from Yahoo Answers referred me here. It is a very pale sea green and I want it to be a deeper shade of aqua. I heard it could be dyed using acrylic craft paints. I have about 5 yards of fabric to be dyed. Please explain in detail how to do this. I have a front loading washer so I can't start the water agitating first. Also, do you let it rinse or spin to get the water and paint out? I can't imagine putting wet paint inside the dryer. If so, do you wash it afterwards to rinse out the hard paint? My fabric is a crinkled satin type of material and I don't want to lose the sheen. Please help!!! Thank you so much!
