What is the best dye?

Hey Everyone,
I often refresh my wardrobe by re-dyeing my clothes. I tend to use a lot of Olive and Navy Blue, but I’m noticing that the dye job is tending to be not as color-fast or as covering as I want. I’ve been using Dylon powder as the Rit I tried was even more transparent. Things like discolored areas or spots of sun-fading are still visible even after a few hours in the bucket.

Any recommendations on better dye options?
I know the content of the fabric matters, but most is cotton or cotton/poly blend.
Thanks in advance!
