Should the application require higher levels of colour fastness, it is recommended to check the fastness level before use. This is particularly recommended for dark blues, bright reds and black where colour fastness can be an issue. The highest level of colour fastness is achieved with the special washfast trilobal polyester product Sylko WF which is available in a select shade range.
