Can this fabric be dyed?
I wanted to dye a sweatshirt fabric from a dark navy to black using Procion® MX dye. However the fabric is a “poly cotton fleece” / “Poly-cotton twill” with a stain resistant finish and canvas detail. Would that particular dye be able to dye the fabric without significant bleeding/fading? What do I have to do to prepare the fabric? How do I go about dyeing this?
Here’s a link to the specifications of the fabric:

I’m sorry, but this does not look like a good project at all.
Stain resistant finishes repel dye. You will get inadequately dark, splotchy results whenever you try to dye any fabric that is stain-resistant. I can’t recommend that you even bother trying to dye it, if the fabric is stain resistant.
Only if the fabric were not stain resistant would you be able to dye it. To get a truly dark color in that case, you’d have to dye the polyester with a special polyester dye which does not work on cotton, in addition to dyeing the cotton with Procion MX dye or another cotton dye. There is no polyester dye that will work on cotton, and there is no cotton dye that will work on polyester. All-purpose dye will not work on polyester. Dyeing polyester is a pain, too; it requires extensive boiling in the dye, which will shrink or even destroy many readymade garments.
