I just used this kit for a class project and the results were fantastic, even though it was my first time. I figured 10 shirts per kit and that was about right. Directions are clear and easy to follow (especially liked the DVD), but we soaked the shirts first then tied them. Had enough rubber bands, but there is only 1 pair of gloves in the kit: if you’re doing a group you’ll need more gloves, and you can’t have too many ziploc bags! Smocks are also a good idea. Did not need all the soda ash, but the packets are easily stored for future use. Bottle nozzles seemed to clog, so we ended up cutting off the tips. Don’t forget to put newspaper or something on the floor as well! I also had them put their shirts on styrofoam plates to apply the dye, which helped contain the mess–the plates rinse off so 1 set got me through 4 classes.
