A print distortion when colors run into one another.
Loss of color by a fabric or yarn when immersed in water or a solvent, as a result of improper dyeing or the use of dyes of poor quality. Fabrics that bleed will stain white or lightly shaded fabrics that come in contact with them when wet.
Coating defect: diffusion of pigment from a lower coat of paint into an upper coat. This diffusion causes a color change.
A video term referring to an image where one color seeps or "bleeds" into the color next to it.

Undercoat staining through the topcoat.
The spreading or running of a pigment by the action of a solvent, e.g. water, oil, etc.
The running of dyes that aren't colorfast in solvent or water. When the color runs it can stain other materials.
When a substrate tends to allow it's color to matriculate through the to coat. This condition is prevalent in some fillers that will allow their colored hardener to "bleed" through the primers and colors that are applied over the filler.
When the color of a dye, stain or pigment in an undercoat passes through the topcoat and produces an undesirable appearance, it is said to be “bleeding.” Bleeding can often be presented or eliminated by the application of an intermediate coat of shellac or aluminum paint or a “Stain Killer.
Removal of color from a floor tile during the wax stripping process.
Loss of color by a fiber, yarn or fabric when immersed in water, a solvent, or a similar liquid medium as a result of improper dying or the use of poor quality dyes.
Migration of color from the coating film onto or into a surface with which it comes in contact. The amber or blue color that is sometimes seen under the silver busbar.
When a dye or color absorbs through to the top layer. This is due to a common solvency of the topcoat and the dye.
The migration of ink, pigment of dye into unwanted areas. Typically occurs when one ink spreads or mixes with another ink, forming an unwanted third color. Also can occur during high-temperature curing where a low opacity ink is placed on a dark poly/cotton garment red or black, for example. Also known as color migration.
Bleeding means a loss of color by a fabric or yarn when it is immersed in water, a solvent, or similar fluid medium, as a result of improper dying or due to use of poor quality dyes.
Diffusion, especially of inks, into areas adjacent to those that were intended to be printed.
The transfer of color in water-wetted fabrics.
Occurs when dyed yarn which has not been washed properly after the dyeing process by "bleeding" or running into the surrounding areas. It can also occur to chemical dyes, which are not stable or color fast. Most common color affected is the red pigment.
Soluble dyes or pigments in old finishes dissolved by solvents in new color and bleed through to the new finish color.
This is the migration of the color from a previous coat into the freshly applied top coat. This defect usually occurs when a light color is applied over a dark color, particularly reds and maroons which are prepared by using organic pigments not resistant to solvents or application over a surface contaminated with bitumen where the solvents in the fresh paint dissolve the bitumen. The remedy is: Use a bleed sealer before application of the light color Wash the surface with mineral turps if it is contaminated with bitumen.
Staining action caused by corrosive metals, oil-based putties, mastics, caulking, sealing compounds, or environmental minerals in the stone.
When dye comes out in the wash, it is called "bleeding".
Undercoat showing through the topcoat.
The migration of material from the substrate, causing discoloration of the paint.
Two ink colors run into each other.
The procedure by which air is removed from a hydraulic system. Equalizer - A device used in parking brake systems to equalize the pull of the rear brake cables.
The color value of one pixel unintentionally appearing in the adjacent pixel or pixels.
Used to describe the occasional purplish-black coloration of media due to phenolic products given off by (usually fresh) transfers.
The process of diffusion of a coloured substance such as pitch from a knot through a paint or varnish coating, resulting in an undesirable staining or discolouration.
When a fabric or yarn loses it color after being immersed in water.
A term used with reference to the hydraulic system of an aircraft which concerns the expulsion of air from a system.
The undesirable loss of dye when the textile is immersed in water or across into an adjacent area or when in contact with another substrate.
A paint defect produced by substances on or in a poorly prepared surface which release stains into new paint.
Color which run together from wet, dyed material onto a material next to it. It has been known that the property of bleeding, sometimes caused through the use of fugitive dyes or bad dyeing techniques, enhances its acceptability in certain markets. A range of striped and checked cotton cloths woven in India known as Bleeding Madras.
Discoloration that occurs when colorants from a lower surface coat diffuse into a surface coat.
Removal of color from carpet or other floor tile material by a liquid Some carpets may bleed with hot water. Floor tile (particularly asphalt) can bleed from an excessive concentration of stripper solution.
The diffusion of color matter through a coating from underlying surfaces causing color change.
This is a loss or transfer of color from one section of the carpet to another, usually under hot-wet conditions.
Transfer of fiber dyes to a liquid medium. These dyes may be redeposited on other fibers and cause staining.
When the color of a stain or other coating material works up into succeeding coats, imparting to them a certain amount of color, it is said to bleed. A non–bleeding color is one that isn’t soluble in materials used over it.
Video term referring to an image error where the color from one object in an image seeps into the object or objects next to it in the same image.
Discolouration caused by a soluble stain coming through the subsequent coatings.
Video image imperfection characterized by blurring of color borders; colors spill over defined boundaries, "run" into neighboring areas.
The diffusion of color through a coating from the substrate; discoloration arising from such diffusion.
Method of creating carpet colors through transfer of fiber dyes from carpet or other fabrics by a liquid, usually water, with subsequent re-depositing on other fibers.
Bleeding is a printing defect where colors bleed through the paper into one another, usually caused by either too muck ink or highly absorbent paper.
SEEPING OF RESIN OR GUM FROM LUMBER, OR A STAIN THROUGH PAINT. ALSO THE PROCESS OF DRAWING AIR FROM WATER PIPES.
Discolouration of a coating by diffusion of natural timber extractives, or previous coatings such as bitumen based products.
Suffusion of a color into adjacent areas, most often caused by moisture or solvents.
Refers to where a very wet mixture has "Bleed" under the masking tapes.
A print distortion where adjacent colors run and merge into one another, sometimes caused by excess ink or paper which is too absorbent.
The slow releasing of pressure in the air-conditioning system by recovering some of its liquid or gas. The act of removing air from a hydraulic brake system. A small leak. When one paint color shows through another.
Seeping of resin or gum from lumber. This term is also used in referring to the process of drawing air from water pipes.
Undercoat staining through the top coat.
The effect in which one color of a dye or paint diffuses into another causing it to discolor.
The undesirable seeping of solvents from the adhesive into pores on the surface to which it was applied. Causes unsightly staining.
Refers to color loss of a floor tile due to the leaching out of pigments by over aggressive stripping compounds.
Video image imperfection characterized by blurring of color borders; colors spill over defined boundaries and "smear" onto neighboring areas.
coating defect consisting of the movement of an ingredient to the surface of a coating, or a movement, which stains in an adjoining area. The term blooming is also a form of bleeding, but it is normally used when describing lubricants rather than pigments.
