(the dye isn't acid, you use an acid like vinegar to help set it) The fiber-reactive procion dye works on all natural fiber, but the acid dye only works on natural fiber with a protein base. (wool and silk) I like acid dye on silk...the colors are vibrant and intense.
Here's some of my silk scarves, they sell these in the Quilt Museum Gift Shop...these are my 'supernova series'
