Subject: RE: BS: why is red dye never fast ??
In a different life, many moons ago, I tested cloth for Marks & Spencer. Of the dyes that company used, the blues and the greens generally did not run when tested (and, hopefully, when washed by purchasers). However, the reds and yellows (and I'd include pink and orange there too)were far less satisfactory, but my experience was that yellow was far more likely to run than red.
