Dye separation Posted by Out of the Box Puppets on May 23, 2012
I have a customer who tried to dye reticulated foam with apple green rit dye, but the foam came out a dark tan. Any ideas what might have happened? I don't have details Of the process he used. I've only have problems with color separation with powdered acid dye not rit, but I don't use it as much.

Was the foam white or the common pale yellow to start with? That is the only thing I can think is that they did not start with white foam.

You are probably right. I forgot that type of foam comes in cream. So obvious. LOL. I'll pass that along.
