Anyway now onto the problem at hand Syntropol will remove the strayed dye if you do it SOON!!! For this type of problem I would use a cotton ball or q- tip.
this is the only way for retayne to work.

i work with batiks and do all my own dyeing and use retayne and syntropol on a daily basis - if you don't follow the directions to the letter its pointless.
