“Great international service. I order several colors of Semprtfli Nanosilk and everything arrived as promised. I was wondering how SF could manage to dye a GSP- type thread and although they have indeed dyed the thread, the dye doesn't appear to penetrate and bind to the substrate material. In fact, the dye comes off on my fingers as I tie. Any suggestions?”

Hi and thank you for your very kind feedback and for your recent order of Nano Silk. Its a great thread and very popular indeed. With regards to the dying of a GSP type thread, this is incredibly difficult. There will be *some* colour rub off, it is inevitable. There are some options open to you and you may find this you tube video helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDZ1SusJ_gk Do let us know if we can be of any assistance at any time. Kindest regards
