Skittles + Washer Machine = Tie-Dye Clothes?

In this video, we are washing a white shirt with a ton of skittles and also seeing if skittles will bleed onto a wet shirt to create a tie-dye effect.

You can “set” the dye using a mild acid, like vinegar. That’s how Easter egg dye kits work, and how you dye natural fibers.

[@superprincessx5]

Katie Wilkinson he should try both methods again with vinegar

[@QueenObsessed05]

I wonder if soda ash might help too - that’s what’s used to help set tie dye

[@kaylonni9574]

That is what I was thinking, using vinegar

[@emiliegatfield2918]

Yes! In fact, I want to see three or four methods: 1. Skittles on wet shirt, like this, then dried on heat in the dryer 2. Skittles on shirt wet with vinegar, then heat dried 3. Soda ash, using Skittles like fiber reactive dyes 4. All of the above with different fiber content. My guess is soda ash will be most effective, especially if the shirt is left to dry with the Skittles still in place.

Should've freeze dried them, powdered them, and then used them as detergent.

I'd like to see some experiments with Laffy FTaffy. For example: How much weight can it hold? How much would it take to lift a person off the ground? Can it be used to cast any sort of metals? How well can it be sculpted? What happens when it's freeze-dried and then rehydrated? How much will it expand in a vacuum? Can you use it like a skipping-rope if you have enough? What does it taste like with all the flavors mixed together? (at least all you can get a hold of anyway) and so on...

Rinse with white vinegar to set the colours, or give them a chance to set. And misting the skittles while they were sitting on the shirt would give you more dye.
