I don't have trouble with Kona Black either; no bleeding color yet.

i have only had bad bleeds with red and blue. other colors like orange and purple bleed sometimes. but i never had black bleed in the true sense. however, retayne can't hurt. i still use it for any color-saturated fabric. that's me.

Did you use the 140 degree water?
I used the hottest water and smallest load in my washer - AND added boiling water - then put in the fabric - and I used a Color Grabber sheet. Kona must be VERY bleed-careful about their black fabric - LOL.
