The purpose of this study is to provide some finishing properties of polyester fabrics in dyeing baths. One bath dyeing and finishing process of 100% polyester fabrics are carried out with exhaust method. A commercial finishing agent is added with different concentrations in the dyeing baths. Fabrics are evaluated concerning hydrophilicity, volumetric resistivity, colour measurement, colour fastness, soil-releasing and fabric performance tests like bending strength, crease recovery, air permeability and thickness. Test results are analyzed by Kruskal Wallis Analysis using version 25 of IBM SPSS Statistics. As a result, the addition of a finishing agent to the dyeing bath has improved hydrophilicity, soil-release, crease recovery and bending strength properties of the fabrics, but has not affected the colour fastness of the fabrics. As the concentration of the finishing agent has increased, the air permeability and the surface resistance of the fabrics have decreased and the thickness has increased.
