Why didn't it bleed? Is it now nice and acidic for nought?
I'm afraid so. As I have stated
here
All this "setting the dye" is hogwash, in my humble opinion.
Unless someone has bought 3 identical indigo-dyed gi's, and soaked one each in salt, vinegar and plain water, and compared the resultant "dye-setting," I'm not gonna waste my time and energy soaking my gi in anything. Salt water at least doesn't stink. Vinegar, on the other hand... well, you've found it out for yourself.
Some say that salt water mimcks the sweat, which again allegedly sets the dye. Well, in that case, I say just practice more and sweat harder! What's wrong with being blue all over at the end of the practice? Just be girl and buy a shower puff. It takes the dye right off your skin
