My friend and I are bored and we have a bunch of neon food coloring! :)I realize I can't dye cotton with food coloring because it's a stain, not a dye, but what other kinds of fabrics could be used? And what is the process?
it's due to the manufacturing processin the final stage, when the material used to make it is rolled out into thin sheets, one side comes out matte and the other shinyit doesn't matter which side you use as far as heat conductivity goes, howevereither side conducts heat at the same ratehope this helps.
it's probably purely aesthetic - one side is probably polished/buffed to make it look better
It happens because the foil is rolled out two layers at a time.The side of the foil that face the rollers come out shinyThe sides that face each other come out matte.
When the foil is made, it is squeezed between rollers that have a highly polished surfaceThe different sides are a result of those rollers squeezing two sheets at one timeThe two sides that touch the rollers are shiny and the two sides that touch each other are dull because they aren't being contacted by the polished rollers.,.
You can use them to dye animal fibers such as wool, alpaca, mohairMaybe get some yarn, dye it, and use that for knitting, looming, whatever? You can also get some silk fabric, or thin wool fabric, dye that, and sew it or just hem it into a scarf.
