Do I have to use a washer, or is there a different method? My girlfriend doesn't want me to ruin the washer. :roll: Also were did you get the dye from.

Washer is not going to get ruined , after you dye the uniform just run a cycle with no clothes , hot water and Bleach and it will be fine .

I buy it at either wally world or a craft store.

Interesting, I didn't know that Flora was also called Arbuz. Arbuz means watermelon in Russian, so I can see why they would call the camouflage pattern that.

New Zealand is introducing a new camo that has MultiCam Colors but is digital. I wonder if this is where camo is going now.

It's amazing how many of these camo patterns make the uniforms look like pajamas.
