Often times, we have to deal with primary colors to achieve the desired tie dye shade that we want. That’s why, in this article, we’ll cover almost all of the shades with their dyeing recipes. With their dye colour mixing chart, you’ll be able to achieve any shade that you want on the best t shirts to tie dye. We’ll give you a little bit of basic info first, then we’ll get into our main topic. Let’s get started!
What is Color
First things first, the simplest definition is what our eyes see when an object reflects light is color. There is another tough definition, but I think knowing that is also important.
According to the Committee on Colorimetry of the Optical Society of America,
Color is the general name for all sensations arising from the activity of the retina of the eye and its attached nervous mechanisms, this activity being, in nearly every case in the normal individual, a specific response to radiant energy of certain wavelength and intensity.
What is Color Mixing
For practical applications, there are three primary colors available, i.e., red, yellow, and blue, as the human eye is trichromatic. They are mixed to create the other available colors. Three secondary colors, green, orange, and violet, are also available. They are created by combining two of the primary colors. Any of the colors can be produced by the primary colors by addition or subtraction between them.
Additive Color Mixing
Here, a is additive color mixing, and b is subtractive color mixing. In additive color mixing,
Red+Green = Yellow
Green+Blue = Cyan
Blue+ Red = Magenta
Red+Green+Blue = White
Subtractive Color Mixing
And in subtractive color mixing,
White-Red = Cyan
White-Green = Magenta
White-Blue = Yellow
When we see the color books or in exact the Pantone book, we see a massive number of colors. But they are not pure colors. Most of the dyes have five to twenty colors, but the other colors can be made by combining the available colors.
If you mix pure colors, you will get clear, bright, and pretty results than mixing the existing mixtures. Purple gives more sparkling results when it is made by mixing pure fuchsia and pure turquoise rather than making it by a combination of red and turquoise.
Sometimes pure colors show the same effect. The effect of using a combination of pure yellow and pure red will be quite the same as a dye that absorbs light in both the yellow and red regions of the spectrum. A wintery palette is made by the darkish blue when they are substituted for the clearer blues, and an autumnal palette is created by the orangish-yellow when they are replaced by the clearer yellows. The produced colors will be subtle and less bright.
Self Shades of Some Common Commercial Dyes (100% Cotton)
Just go over these shades for getting a general idea. The dye that you’re going to buy will also come with a self-shade. If not, check the manufacturer’s website. You’ll surely find one. Then, you should adjust the dye percentage accordingly. For example, if the red dye that you’ve got is less yellowish than the ones used in the recipes below, then just increase the proportion of yellow.
