How??? Or is this smoke and mirrors; dyed red and then hydrodipped with a bit of white paint, which will instantly tear off?

I don’t know if the white is supposed to be there, or you just really liked it :eyes:

He said it’s hot glue that caused the effect. He just laid it on top the wheel when he submerged it I guess

Yah! It’s pretty awesome. I could see other combos working just as well.

Glad you like the gif :smiley:

That’s interesting about using hot glue to keep the original color. I’m guessing the dye dip can’t be too hot though. I’d like to see someone hot glue a tread pattern on the wheels and see how that turns out. Like a poor man’s Harfang. Or better yet dye a Harfang wheel, but fill the treads with hot glue first. That sounds interesting.

I do this with laccrose stick heads all the time, theoretically you could do 3 colors.

Those look really nice. Can you share what dye you used and a brief description on how to color wheels?

Hot glue prevents dye absorption there?
