if the powers that be should see fit to bestow upon me a giant stainless steel pan in which i may dye 6 yards of fabric so that i don't have to keep spending hours scrubbing dye out of the tub, that would be super freaking awesome

especially since i've done it two nights in a row and am STILL not satisfied with the shade i've gotten

cosplay, prayer to the gods of cosplay, dying fabric

kimu showed me a trick with dying and cleaning tubs...... any like mildew cleaner. I use the arm and hammer tub scrubber WITH BLEACH ACTION... that is formulate dto kill mildew and molds... totaly.... cleans.... no scrubbing!

and if you need to. I have a washer that can dye MANY yards fo fabric <3

yeah, i've just been scrubbing the hell out of my tub with comet; doesn't really help that the tub was always kind of orange/yellow to begin with...may have to invest in some of that stuff...

don't know when the next time i'll be in denver is, esp. since the roommates and i have to have "coffee time" this week on one of my two days off. may have to take you up on that if i haven't gotten a good color out of it by then. how something can be so vibrant from a distance and so dull and washed out up close i don't even

lol. you and your bleach power shiba

have to try that next. got the comit mildew remover with bleach (cus for the life of me i couldn't find the arm and hammer one inoli suggested) and so far it's doing jack

got second opinion on car issues, just have to call rob and see what he thinks. hopefully cheaper fix *crosses fingers*
