Outdoor Togs Faded?
Dye-Bath Is Answer
You can easily get another season's wear from sun-faded shorts, slacks, blouses and other outdoor wearables. A few dime boxes of all-fabric dye, available in 50 colors, will do the trick. If the fabric has faded unevenly or if you want an entirely different color, use fast-acting color remover first, advises Tinttex Home Economics Bureau. Your washing machine is ideal for tinting, especially larger articles, such as slack suits and dresses, the bureau points out.
