Faded Black clothes- Unfade!
I found this stuff that you can use to paint your clothes just like regular spray paint. i found it at www.simplyspray.com
anyway, i have a pair of sweatpants that i just can't part with- but i washed them so much they are so dull. i painted them with this and now they look like they did 10 years ago (yes they are 10 years old!)
the stuff worked great and its not regular spray paint, it doesn;t smell and you can't feel the paint on the fabric
yipppeeee!!!!

I saw some stuff (new black?) once that was for renewing black garments, but I didn't buy it. (Darn!) I could use some now.
I was planning on dying them as I'm sensitive to airborne stuff, like spray paints.

We used this to paint silk scarves for a friends wedding. It works, but be careful of getting it splotchy.

Well, I just posted in another thread about the wonders of Rit Dye on my black tops, but I will definitely be on the lookout for this! Thank you!

I just let my old black things turn sort of dark brown. Easier and more frugal. :-) I mean, why would my old sweatpants need to be really dark black anyway?

The upholstery stuff is neat! I thought about our caravan, but the price kinda surprised me....$69 for a case of 6 cans and only sold on line. I know it's cheaper than having it done though. Maybe I'll show my hubby and see what he thinks.
Neat idea!
