PRODUCT UPDATES: Procion MX Neutral Grey & Color Magnet in BULK
NEW COLOR - Procion MX Neutral Grey
We are excited to introduce a NEW Neutral Grey color to our ever popular line of Procion MX dyes! Neutral Grey (#211) is a homogeneous color (not a blend of multiple colors) that is actually grey and actually neutral: it will never become black if you use too much and, being a pure color, will reduce color shifting to an absolute minimum. The new, Neutral Grey replaces the existing Pearl Grey color in the Procion MX line.
COLOR MAGNET - NOW AVAILABLE IN GALLON SIZE
We are also thrilled to meet the demand and now offer Color Magnet in a gallon size. Color Magnet Dye Attractant is one of our most innovative products! It can be used in tandem with most types of Jacquard dye for creating contrasting monochromatic prints on fabric without changing the feel of the textile.
PRODUCT UPDATE: Textile Color
NEW FORMULA Textile Color Fluorescent Red #154
We are pleased to announce that Textile Color Fluorescent Red #154 has been reformulated using a newly available fluorescent red pigment. Whereas the original color was very similar to Fluorescent Pink #153, the new pigment is significantly redder while still being wildly intense and fluorescent. Available in four sizes.
UPGRADED Bottles
Jacquard is also pleased to announce that, moving forward, all bulk size paints will be packaged in new, crystal clear PET plastic jugs. These new bottles do not collapse like the old HDPE bottles did, and they make the paints look fantastic on the shelf!
NEW PRODUCT: Henna in BULK SIZE
Henna now available in BULK!
Henna is a natural colorant made from the dried leaves of the Lawsonia inermis shrub. Henna has been used for thousands of years for body art, especially in India, where it is known as Mehndi.
Jacquard’s Mehndi Henna Kit makes a great introduction to this natural tattooing technique, but for seasoned henna artists, large henna parties or events, Jacquard is proud to now offer henna in bulk! It produces a beautiful reddish-orange brown color that for millennia has been associated with good luck, good health, fertility, sensuality, positive energy and wisdom.
