Can you improve this SE Rhyno for me??

You see the funky little stain on the RHS (top only, bottom is not stained). It's like it sat on the edge of some water for a few days. I'd like to do an off-center burst dye or something sweet to cover up the ugly and give it back some mojo. Or not! It will still throw just perfect, I know.

I don't know enough about dyeing or this type of plastic to know whether you can do some magic for me. Anybody wanna tackle this just let me know. Most of the plastic is really clean actually...



Shoot me a PM if possible.

Good luck on the dying of soft plastics. I dyed a Soft Wizard and it came out pretty good i think, but some say the dyes dont take well to soft plastics.

They take to varying degrees, I've had some go well, others not so vibrant, and they usually fade fast. My omega ss took dye the best out of any of the softer baseline plastics, it's holding color pretty damn well too. I've never tried to dye the SE plastic though, but I'd love to give it a shot if none of the more experienced dyers have dyed SE plastic before. Might be a good Dan Howard candidate for a marbling experiment as well. That would look sweet and cover up the blotch.

one idea would be to cover the center with a chosen design/emblem and leave the rest exposed, and just dunk it in black overnight.

I think the SE is blended enough that it'll take it well enough, but I'd expect it to blur and fade rather quickly - so don't go with too much detail.
