Oh, sorry.
Sorry for double posting, but what's the best way to recolour a clear wheel. I was thinking of recolouring the Hasbro Leone wheel black or green. I'm not sure what colour to use.

Thanks, could I do this with a sharpie though? I'm English and we don't have RIT dye.
Ellz and I are both also English ... look on eBay, or something.
Ok, I just can't be bothered to buy it then wait for it. If you know what i mean. So are Sharpies ok to use?
How do you paint metal wheels and clear wheels?

I always use Sharpie, it is fine and it looks very nice if done right. It does scratch off easily though so you're going to have to recolor it every 5 days or so, every 3 days if it is used a lot.

Ok, do i just colour the underneath of the clear wheel with fine strokes of the Sharpie? Or do I just use it like a paint brush, covering large surface area quickly by colouring on it.

Awesome Smile That's the color I was going for. How much did you use?
I dyed mine.
I just soaked it in a little bit of the liquid kind.

If your using rit dye (or other fabric dye) just follow Ellz guide it tells you everything you need to know -

Oooooh I like it. I bet on the red Lightning wheel it'd look REALLY good.
Is aerosol spraypaint alone enough for painitng a metal wheel or should I use primer/sandpaper/etc. ? I'd like to try painting burn a metallic black.

With paint.

What kind of paint? Also, "With paint" is a fragment, not a proper sentence.
Being blunt sort of loses it's effect when flushed out; doesn't it?
Blaze Wheeler's answer was succinct and sufficient.
I decided to place elastic bands onto my dark wheel (for the lulz) and it was fun to play with indeed Smile I tried it on my earth wheel first but because it slopes the band eventually flew off (during rotation). I am now considering in buying a spare Dark wheel just for this use lol.

What exactly is that supposed to do, and why would it require more than 2 Dark wheels?

I only have one dark wheel, and it just gives friction to the wheel vs right spin (for or against it depends on which beyblade has the higher rpm).. also crash into a wall and its KO; as i said it was just for the lulz.
