Salt for Setting Dark Clothing

RE: Salt for Setting Dark Clothing By projectgrl (Guest Post) I'm doing an experiment and I was wondering, if it will set in if you are dying the clothes?

I presoaked the material in salt and vinegar and then washed the material, but the dark dye is still bleeding from the cuffs of the coat onto my cream turtle neck sweater. Is there any way to stop the bleeding or will I just toss away the material and try another material?

I just did a yellow longsleeved tee shirt and it bled yellow on anything that came in contact with it.

Contact This tip is from 2001 so I am not sure if Lou is still with us or not. I did however find this tip on an extension site recently and the recommendation was 1/2 cup of salt.
