Thanks for tips, advice and links guys. Usually I'll just buy what I need in black but occassionally you have a material you just cant find in black. Since I already have the Rit dye lm in the process of trying this again. Going by advise i was given I soaked the material overnight then dyed it orange. Its now in the black dye. I used more black dye and vinegar than I normally would use for doing other colors and am allowing it more time. Seems to be working , time will tell.
