The present invention relates to a method of dyeing polymeric substrates having pendent carboxyl groups, especially polyamides. The method comprises applying to a substrate a reactive dye solution and heating the substrate in the presence of a magnesium donor at a pH of greater than 9.0, such that the reactive dye forms a covalent bond with the carboxyl groups on the substrate. A dye composition for dyeing a polymeric substrates having pendent carboxyl groups is also disclosed.
