I kinda did warn about this multiple times
Simmer = Good
Boil = Bad
You don't want it spitting, overflowing, bubbling violently, seriously.

Rit is the dye I'd recommend though.

simmer is when steam starts coming out right?
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - theflightyellz - Oct. 05, 2010
Simmering is when there is a little steam and some small bubbles, when it gets to this stage you'll want to turn the heat down just a little so it stays at this maintained heat and doesn't go above it.

Will regular dye work as a substitute for rit dye?
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - Headenbr3 - Oct. 13, 2010
What color would you recommend if I wanted to get a color like th 145 and WD on Earth Eagle? (same color as the hasbro launcher grip that came with the red rubber)
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - theflightyellz - Oct. 13, 2010
I'd recommend Black, but only leave it in for 3 or so minutes.

You need a dye that's compatible with artificial fabrics, but I still can't vouch for any dye other than Rit since I've never used any others before.

Has anyone tried the Dylon for Dyeing? I have seen a few in a little Shop here in Milan, but there isn't write nothing about Plastic, Polyester or other...
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - Headenbr3 - Oct. 21, 2010
Ijust tried to dye my C145 blue and got a dark green, is there a way to get it to my desired color?
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - DarkCancer333 - Dec. 18, 2010

i don t think so
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - Dan - Dec. 19, 2010
You probably didn't do it correctly, because it should work fine..
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - milkychipz - Jan. 08, 2011
Very sorry to have revived this thread, but they look so pretty <3 I'll try this with a useless part before dyeing some other, more valuable parts. I will keep you updated once its finished. Also, is this a thin layer of paint, or does this make them illegal...
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - DarkCancer333 - Jan. 08, 2011
i believe that it is still legal if you do this, because it absorbs the dye.
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - milkychipz - Jan. 09, 2011
Is It possible to use food dye?
RE: Theflightyellz's Quick Guide to Plastic Dyeing - The Fire Wyrm - Jan. 09, 2011
If you want to eat it, then yes.

Who would want to eat plastic? <---- Sorry for off-topicness.

In some earlier posts by flightlyellz,he said that this does not permeate the metal,so I guess It will work with metal wheels then?
