UK puppet builder, dying for help!

Hi all

As an ocassional puppet builder in the UK, i've always used those tiny tins of Dylon to dye my antron fleece.

But recently i've noticed they've been discontinued!

So can someone please advise me what is the best product (readily avaiable in the UK) to use now....

Many thanks in advance.

Pinoc.

Discontinued?

Any good Woolsworth, Wilkinson and maybe Poundland still stock those tin dyes - only critique is that the colours are varied enough, so lots of experimenting mixing the powder is always a good idea.

Also ebay does them on occassion.

Thanks for the link LabRat, I might go to RIT dyes on my next build...whenever that will be.

Dyon

I think they really have been discontinued i've been to several places who used to stock the tiny tins and they no longer have them available.

In fact the display racks have even changed so there is nowhere to even dispay them any longer.

And Checking on the Dylon website they no longer list them as part of thier range.

So if you find any in your local stores stock up now...
