Did you heat up the liquid? Something something i used water, a whole bottle of rit, a cup of vinegar, and a pump of soap, and periodically heated up the liquid so it’s at a soft boil.

I poured boiling water into that plastic bin, and added a whole bottle of dye, no dish soap or vinegar. It was a fail. :cry:. I realize I used the wrong dye.

I should’ve used the dye for synthetics. Also, I’ll go get an old pot from a secondhand store and put on my camp stove in the garage to maintain the heat. (I was gonna use the stove in the kitchen, but when the wife realized what I was doing, she kicked me out of there☹️

Ah yea that’s the wrong dye, it will make it darker a bit, but not black.

Double the synthetic dye to water ratio and use the soap and vinegar and it will be a great success!

i happen to love the green wheels! I wonder if the black dye will darken the logo?

I imagine a kickflip on that would be incredibly difficult.

…that might actually be one of the cheaper options for drop brackets, if you flipped em over and mounted them in the right place.

Cheers! Pretty stoked how they came out! The fabric on the demonseed got slightly skewed, but nothing i can do about it now :disappointed_relieved:

Lol me too. I could only fit 2 in the pot, so i’ll have a good comparison.

I used 2 packs of synthetic dye, a good squirt of dish soap and half a bottle of the all purpose dye that i already had here.

Fingers crossed!
