Finding RIT equivalent

[mejlholm]

I'd like to try out the whole dye thing, but I'm having some trouble getting started. I live in Sweden and have a hard time finding equivalents to the stuff you guys over there use.

I recall reading a post (cant fint it now...) stating that RIT dye is just a clothes powder dye, so I started looking for equivalents. I tried this one (found it in a local store)

but had no luck with it at all. My fingers took well to the color, but the disc (DGA pro plastic) didn't take any at all (even after I increased the color mix to insane proportions).

Anybody got any pointers on what to look for? Or should I just start looking for websites that deliver RIT powder to EU.

Just mail order the rit. I think it's your best bet.

There is a British store that sells RIT, I bought mine from there. I can't remember what it was called, but I'll try to find it at some point.

EDIT: Found it faster than I thought. It's about £3,5 per package. Search for rit dye powder. http://www.lainesworld.co.uk/
