I'm kind of like Ghostie here .... huh?

Wouldn't they start fighting (kidding!!).
Maybe not kidding .. maybe there'd be a chemical reaction in your washer?

A thought here ... is it not correct that you first need to wash the fabric, to get the excess dye out (particularly batiks) before setting with retayne. What I'm suggesting here, that there's a certain amount of excess dye that you'll never set and needs to be washed out.
