DeColourant

 

   We are now stocking a new range of decolourant which will remove the colour from fabrics and papers. Think "bleach" without the harmful side effects.This is safe (even for children), non-toxic and it gives superior fine line detail.

DeCoulourant - plus

This is the same product, combined with pigments to replace the existing colour with a new colour.  The result is colour replacement with no change to the texture of your fabric or paper. We have twelve colours in stock.

DeColourant Mist

This is a non-aerosol spray version of decolourant that works best with dyed natural fabric and non-glossy paper.
