Default Refreshing dyes

Hi folks!!!

After spending several weeks in foreign countries i returned to my lil' shop. Unfortunately there's one bucket of dye I forgot to close....a special olive mixture (AcidRain will remember). I would say the pigments are still there, but very "dusty"..........there's no liquid left.....
I have to explain, that i get the dye's powder-like....means I have to solve it....
So is there any chance for rescue
I didn't try it so far.....searching for some answers.....

Alex

Ah... the special mix.
I would try to revive it. Just add the correct amount of distilled water, and heat it to disolve the crusty remnants.
Try it on a test run first though.
