dying plastics

[ratmraptor]

So I just thought of an awesome idea... could I dye my plastics with rit dye. I did it with my lacrosse heads and it works great.

Just tie knots in it, and wrap with a rubber band, and soak in a tub. Just be careful, they will bleed when washed! !!!!!!!! Bahahaha!!!!!

yeah, it will work, I have seen people do it in the past. Colors dont come out to rich unless you let it soak for few days at least.

All you need is a large tub lots of rit dye and water. You can get rit dye at any craft stores .just make the mix and throw ur plastics in ,id say for 6 hours. Then let them bake in ur drive way or a black top for a few hours.

You may need to repeat the process to get the colors right

If you can heat the water it will help the color transfer.

Or do it smart and dye the plastics the same color they originally where.

how much dye are we talking here ??? i wanna go red to black on an extra set of plastics i have

Like 2-3 packets for each color. If you have white plastics it would work the best
