Makes a HUGE difference
Tie Dye is one of the first techniques that I teach annually in a Fiber and Textile class. Absolutely, no doubt about it, the Soda Ash dye fixer makes a huge difference in the final result.Using it yields deep, vivid colors that stay gorgeous after many washes. Without Soda Ash, the colors look great at first but almost immediately fade away to almost nothing.If you are going to go through the effort of proper tye dying, you need to use this or you are wasting your time and money.Mix 1 cup Soda Ash per gallon of warm water, soak (pre-washed) fabic for about an hour, then wring/squeeze water solution out of fabric by hand... it's ready to tie dye.Use it.

This really works
Soda ash comes with the jacquard tie dye kit, but I needed extra. Soda ash really is the key ingredient when doing tie dye because it keeps the dye from fading and bleeding. Our tie dye shirts and pillowcases still look great even after many washings, and I attribute that to the soda ash.

The product is fine
...but it is overpriced here. Try to procure locally if possible. I found it locally for half the price I paid on Amazon...and I am usually pleased with Amazon prices. I did not do enough pre-purchase research on this one.
