Act III Labcoat Question: Fabric dyes???

Aug 04, 2009 16:02


With Halloween quickly approaching, I've been doing some costume planning.  This year, I'm thinking of being the Act III Dr. Horrible (i.e.: red lab coat).  Since I'm on a budget and cannot afford a custom coat, I'm thinking of dying the Mad Scientist lab coat.

The costume is 100% polyester, but I have heard that several people have been successful using disperse dyes..... I'm currently looking into the iDye Poly.  I'm just wondering if anyone has dyed this particular coat or has dyed materal similar to this one. Any tips??  Thanks!

ETA: Update!
Ok...I went through with it, and the lab coat turned out great!
Pics will be posted soon :)
