Can you put Rit dye in the microwave?
Rit works best in hot water and the heat from the microwave speeds up the dyeing process, heating the water so the dye absorbs quickly into the fabric. Perfect for tie-dyeing, wax-less batik dyeing, dye painting, dyeing paper and marbling up to one yard of fabric.
Can you reheat Rit dye?
I don't see why you can't save it; it's just a matter of re-heating it to dye again. A sealed glass jar in a dark place as you sugget should work fine.
Can I use Rit dye without boiling?
If tap water is not hot enough, heat water on the stove and add to the dyebath.
