Abstract

A method of improving the stability to ozone exposure of dyes on natural or synthetic polyamide fiber materials comprises treating the fiber material, before, during or after dyeing, with a liquor comprising a homopolymer or copolymer having structural repeating units of formula (1) ##STR1## in which PA1 R.sub.1 is unsubstituted or substituted C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl. The resulting dyeings and prints feature improved ozone fastness with no effect on hue, colour yield and other fastness properties such as light fastness, for instance.
