Can I use Synthrapol on colored fabric or just white?

This is specifically made for colors although I'm sure it's fine to use on white. I use it in the washing machine after I tie-dye clothing to keep the colors from bleeding together. However, I have learned in my new "modern" washing machine it does not fill up with water fast enough and colors can sometimes bleed anyway. I have to mix the Synthrapol in water first and add it to the machine immediately or do it in a bucket, agitate the tie-dye clothing, and then pour it all in the washer.

What is the difference between Synthraphol and Retayne?

Retayne fixes dye to fabric and should be used to wash fabric that bleeds or may bleed PRIOR to using in a quilt or other project. Synthrapol is a detergent that suspends dye particles in wash water so that they do not reattach to fabric. Under the best circumstances it can help salvage a completed quilt which has been found to include bleeding fabric(s).

Can this be used along with Oxiclean in the washing machine? I need to soak clothing in hot water to remove stains but I want to prevent color bleed.

Yes no problem. Perfect for that. This is called backstaining and is exactly what it was meant to prevent.

Can you use this Synthrapol without the recommended added soda ash?

Synthrapol is a detergent intended to wash excess dye out of fabric. Soda Ash is used in the dying process to help the fabric retain color better. Between the two, Soda Ash is the more necessary component to the dye process, but both are recommended to produce the highest quality finished result.
