If I dyed a very very very old going very grey tee shirt back to black, would it ruin an already faded print?

probably yes, I seem to remember trying that once, and the t-shirt disintergrated soon afterwards

Is the print intricate? Could try going over pattern with wax so the dye won't hold.

Just a fort. Batik yer arse off SG :D

In that case, an all black t shirt would surely be a vast improvement

I have a Miss!on '86 (or '87) tour t-shirt and after a while the print seemed to wash out and was barely visible. Then it was accidentally washed with something that contained a lot of dye. My brothers white socks came out a dark colour, but the print on the t-shirt re-emerged and is now (if I remember rightly) a greenish colour.

And he's called 'Bob'.

Which is short for Kate.

So, SG....how'd the 'Operation Wobbly Bob' go?

If it did all go horribly wrong you could always stick a bit of string in the middle and turn it into a candle. :D
