Reverse Dye Side Fan Fold Tie Dye T-shirt [Out White Brite]

In this video I show how I tied a 100% cotton black T-shirt, removed part of the black dye from the shirt, and re-dyed it blue. I liquid dyed and ice dyed the T-shirt.

Thank you so much!

[@LeticiaSPandaMcfly6]

So pretty! I’m laughing over here, because I commented on IG about white brite, before I watched the video! Now I see that you did use it. I used it once for the first time the other day and I really like it. I found it much easier to use than Rit. Once again, you have created a beautiful shirt! 😍

[@FunEndeavors]

Haha - Thank you so much! I agree that Out White Brite is much easier and faster than Rit Color Remover. I was really surprised the first time I used it how quickly it worked.

[@epenn76]

This one is insanely cool!

i do have a question about reusing sinew...have you tried? i feel like once used and the waxy coating is gone, the effective barrier is not as crisp. wondering if you have experience here.

[@FunEndeavors]

@@kimaardalen7272 I haven't ever tried reusing sinew. I agree with you though - I don't think it would be as effective. It would also be a lot of work to clean it properly to avoid any color transfer from the original dye onto the new shirt. I definitely couldn't reuse sinew I used for reverse dyeing. Since I leave the shirt tied throughout the whole process, it will sometimes be frayed by the time I'm ready to remove it from the shirt.

[@kimaardalen7272]

your opinion-you have now tested multi systems to remove color for the reverse tie dye...wondering which you prefer? would you be able to do or splice a video on all you methods? i think I've seen you test 4 now. it's a big ask and a lot of work so would be just as satisfied to read your preferences.

[@FunEndeavors]

@@kimaardalen7272 That's a great idea! I might have to wait a bit until it warms up outside, but I would love to do a comparison (I like to use all the remover products outside - especially the deColourant).
So far, I really like the Out White Brite if the design is one that can be submerged in a color remover. The Rit Color Remover works really well too, but it takes a bit longer to work. Both the Out White Brite and Rit Color Remover will take quite a bit of the color out and leave the shirt pretty light. That makes the colors bright and vivid when I add dye into the areas where the color was removed. I love that they don't have to be neutralized either.
The deColourant is great for more finite and detailed work, but it can be a bit tricky. The fibers have to be coated really well for it to work properly and not be patchy. The deColourant should be dry before removing the color with an iron, so it's the most time consuming of them all - but one of the most effective for detailed work. It will get the shirt pretty light though like the Out and Rit. In my opinion, it is the worst smelling of all of the methods.
Bleach is easy to use and I've sprayed it on, painted it on, squirted it on, etc... So that makes it really versatile. However, it damages the fabric. Even if a shirt is neutralized using hydrogen peroxide, it is still tough on the fibers. I haven't had success with getting the color very light with bleach either. Mine usually bleach to orange and if I try going lighter - the fabric develops holes. I do like the orange color that reverse dyeing with bleach gives though. I think it looks good with the black. Since it doesn't remove as much of the color as one of the other methods, the dye colors don't seem quite as bright to me after the shirt is dyed. 🙂

I have done a number of ice dye, but I have applied the powdered dye directly to the shirt and then covered with ice. You sprinkle your powdered dye over the ice. How do you feel the garment dyes sprinkling over versus under the ice? Or what the primary benefits might be?

[@FunEndeavors]

I use both methods of applying the dye under and over the ice when I ice dye. I like to apply the dye under the ice when I want to control where the dye goes and when I want a bit more definition in the design and dye placement. I add the dye over the top of the ice when I want more of a diffused and more watercolor look. Most of the time I add the dye under the ice, but I like to change it up occasionally and add it over the top. Both methods work really well though - it depends on what look you prefer.

I got some OWB for some black Levi's jeans, used boiling water and a lot of OWB and it didn't take out any color. Is that normal?

[@FunEndeavors]

I know that traditional blue jeans don't work well with OWB. I haven't ever tried black jeans though. I am surprised it didn't work on them.

[@Blackdog4818]

Yeah, someone on FB said Levi's use indigo dye and it doesn't react with OWB. Oh well.
