Dharma Fixative

I used the Dharma Fixative on the last batch of dying I did and I must say, I think I've stopped the bleeding...:) I let the dyed cane dry overnight before the Dharma Fixative treatment. What I used: One gal. of hot water, the same amount used for dying; 2 oz of Dharma Fixative; Added the coil of dyed cane; I turned it after 10 minutes but if your water completely covers the coil you could just leave it in the Dharma Fixative for 20 minutes; Let it dry over night. I have not had a problem with bleeding using either coil that I treated.
