Retayne works. Often materials will bleed and that can lead to discoloring of other fabrics when washed together. I wash all new fabric individually with a Color Catcher. If the color catcher is discolored, I treat it with Retayne. One treatment is almost always sufficient. I then wash it again individually with a color catcher. If this follow-up wash shows a discolored color catcher, then I usually put that fabric in the scrap pile or trash it. Only rarely have I done 2 Retayne treatments. If the first treatment was insufficient, then usually the second treatment also fails and definitely time to trash the fabric. I have found a variety of colors that bleed - red, blue, green, yellow... with red seeming to be the worst. Considering the time and effort in making a quilt, or the cost of all the other garments in the washer, save yourself the anguish. Wash it alone and if it bleeds, treat it with Retayne. Bottomline, Retayne works.

Instructions are clear and simple to follow. Has worked well for setting dye in red and blue fabrics. No odor left in fabric. Not inexpensive.

Prompt arrival, works well. Instructions are easy to understand. Retayne is a bit expensive, but it may save a quilt from ruination.

I am a quilt artist, and I want to be sure all the fabrics in my quilts are colorfast..Retayne does the job

I had washed my fabric eight times with color catchers and it kept bleeding. I used 1 cap of Retayne with one color catcher and one piece of white fabric to see if it would bleed anymore, and the fabric no longer bled.
