Anti-Chlor

Please read the directions carefully before starting.

Use Bleach to discharge on cotton. Not all colors strip 100%. In the bleaching, stripping, or discharge printing of natural fibers with bleach, it is proved difficult to remove the last traces of chlorine. If left in the fiber, this chlorine seriously weakens the fiber. It also may cause difficulty in obtaining a given shade if the fabric is to be over dyed.

It is important to work outside or in a well-ventilated area and use gloves, safety glasses and a cartridge respirator fitted with an acid gas cartridge. Always do test samples before working on a large project. Do not use this process on silk, it will destroy the fabric. For additional information visit our web site at www.prochemical.com.

Wear rubber gloves, apron, or old clothes and cover work area with newspapers.

Dye and stripping utensils should never be used for food preparation.
