Thread: Dye That Won't Stain The Bathtub?

Tweet

I'm going with the crime scene bathroom for this year's party.. but what's red that doesn't stain? I heard someone say waxing the tub with car wax before would help..any truth to that? What about Rit Fabric Dye. How do ya'll do it? I'm stumped! lol.

I dye my pool with "Party in A Pool" which doesn't stain but I do need to scrub my grout after so I haven't tried in in the tub. I use Crayola Color Dotz in my bath tub -- you have to use several to get it red and not pink. They don't get as red as the pool dye but in the dark it totally works.

OMG! Perfect! I looked it up already.. I didn't even know they made these things! If you don't mind me asking, how much do you use and where do you get it, other than the official website?

I usually buy the Crayola Color Dotz at Walmart or Target. It comes in an assorted container which let's you play with the colors and their intensity. Depending on how big the tub is I usually use 3-4 red tablets.

lFor something as large as a pool -- I recommend "Party in a Pool" sold in pool stores.

There's this stuff turns the water into red goo, you could stick fake body parts in and it'd look gross

For our super cheap route we spray pam in the tub then just put red food coloring in the water. We've used this almost every year and it hasn't stained yet. Although we do scrub with Comet afterwards....

By the way, that Gelli Baff stuff looks pretty cool! I may order some for our tub for this year!

My niece had some, she loved the stuff..I like the way you can dissolve it after use.
