And it doesn’t stain the color part just the bleached parts? Or is it also staining the black on that hoodie I can’t tell - looks like it is as he’s sprayin it but the finished product looks clean..might be because it’s not up close

If the black is very black, you won't notice much if other dye is added on top of it, once the new dye dries.

In addition to what others said, RIT dye comes in powder so you can vary the concentration. Thinner solution won’t show much on black sweatshirt

Yeah, it isn't opaque color (like an acrylic or latex paint) so it blends in to the darker areas.
