Abstract (en)
The dye may be applied uniformly, or in a pattern, preferably in the form of a spray. Liquid unfixed dye is applied to a substrate for the purpose of patterning the substrate. One or more streams of pressurized gas such as air are then directed onto the substrate for the purpose of displacing some of the unfixed dye where the streams impinge the substrate, thereby causing a visually distinctive area on the substrate where the relative dye concentration is reduced. Resulting products are also disclosed.
