SUGGESTED RECIPE - Light to Medium shade
| Substrate | Dosage* |
|---|---|
| Polyester | 0.5-1% (owf) |
| Polyester/Spandex | 1-2% (owf) |
| Saragen-SO | 0.3-0.5 g/l (Optional) OR |
| Saragen-DAM | 1.0-2.0% (Optional) |
Addition of dispersing agents (Saragen-SO, Saragen-DAM) improves removal of dye in case of polyester/spandex.
Dosages of diluted product to be calculated on the basis of solid content.
Dosages to be taken depending on the depth of shade.
